Title: Re: [gwl-g] Need help with blue phlox - no botanical name
Hi, Sheri -- are you asking about the native wild blue phlox or woodland phlox?
Phlox divaricata

jems







Can anyone help me out here?
 
My son, Jake, is a 3rd grader at Webster Elementary in Livonia, Michigan.  He needs to write a "fact page" on blue phlox and we have been unable to find if this flower has an interesting history or if it has alternative uses (i.e., medicinal, edible, etc).  His paper is due on 2/22, so any info you could forward would be helpful. 
 
Thanks,
Sheri
