So I've been corrected by my nature loving friend Betty and the flowers I've always called Wild Phlox are actually called Dame's Rocket. They are a member of the mustard family and in some of the states considered a noxious weed. The four petaled blooms come in a variety of colours purple and lavender being most common. They spread prolifically in well drained areas along ditches and roadways and sun drenched areas in the woods.
