What is the name of the blue / white / lavender colored wildflowers
growing along the roadsides currently in central PA. A couple of us
at work had heard them called "Phlox", but they don't look like the
Phlox in my wildflower book and I can't find anything else that
matches them.

The plants are about 18-24" tall. The flowers have 4 petals in
cruciate shape, and are maybe 3/4" in diamter. The flowers are in
clusters at the top of the stems. The leaves are narrow and
elongated.

I don't have any place to post a photo or I would, BUT anybody who
lives in central PA will know the flowers I'm talking about because
they're all over the place right now.
