    Dames Rocket? This comes back from root and also reseeds really well. It likes poor soil and doesn't mind a drought. It blooms all summer if I dead head...

    I think it is Dames Rocket too. The picture is not good. The blur makes the flowers resemble Tall Summer Phlox. But it isn't. Thank you Deborah.

    I think the purple one is wild Phlox, I'm sure. And yes the orange one is a Poppy.

    The orange one is a poppy and the pink one is wild phlox. I just put some of the phlox in one of my flower beds. I got it from along side of the road. They are a nice addition as they grow taller than regular phlox (approx. 3-4 ft)

    Dame's rocket (Hesperis matronalis) would not keep going all summer. You must have phlox.

    I think the one on the left may also be called Stock which is an old fashioned flower that smells great.. I think it is similar to phlox, but I really think it may be stock! Google it!

    I love stock!!! I have not seen any this year in Atlanta. I always plant it when I do find some. The scent is so wonderful. My first thought was poppey and phlox. It looks a bit tall for stock, but you have me thinking.
