I bought something at Lowe's (I know... ) marked down last year called Blue Moss Phlox, but can't find a real definitive match on PF.
It's been pathetic looking since the day I brought it home, and I was SURE I could nurse it back to health (ha!) however... not so much.

Do you have a better choice for a variety that would do well here in Texas? Even better in Xeriscaping.
