VV--it is not just any bug! it is pretty rare to see one. It is called
the "Hummingbird Moth"--as it's wings move just as fast as a hummingbird's
and it is almost the size of a small hummer.

How wold one divide off a small section from a Phlox? Don't know what their root
system looks like. Then i could mail one to you.....I don't think their roots
run too deep.

If you are patient--I will try to collect seed for you.
I may even have some seed from last year.... Don't know how long from seed it
would take for a Phlox to grow and bloom.?????????

This is the Phlox "David"--pure white, strong and robust. From last year.
Mine had one bloom open today. It is on one, very sturdy stem.
This is the one I moved last year. Glad it came back...

And--one more shot of uour favorite--also from last year.

Good night....G.
