Hi Lime, I have phlox, but not David. I have Laura. I also have purple creeping woodland phlox. It looks like 'Sherwood Purple'. I can send a pic. I probably have other things you may be interested in as well. Let me know either way, Remy Here is a link that might be useful: My Trade Page

Ida, I've used bamboo skewers, usually available about 15" long, to support stems. You can glue two together to make them longer..just extend one below the other about halfway...does this make sense? Also, if I were you I'd disentangle the bunch and hang each separately. When dried they are fairly fragile and it will be hard to separate without damage. As to other uses, they make beautiful xmas tree decorations...just cut off head and tuck into branches. I've seen them sprayed white, gold or silver for this use. I just used them natural along with bits of things made from artemesia, other seedheads, small baskets, straw ornaments, etc. The heads also look great just piled in wooden platter ...maybe atop some potpourri. jo
