Phlox of Many Colors

My husband and I had stopped at a flea market. There was a man selling small Phlox plants. He had about four different colors, so I bought them all and started me a garden of them. I have gotten more colors and added to the garden. I probably have about 14 different colors. They are so pretty, and the butterflies love them.
