If you can't find any in your area, try ebay. There were several auctions for creeping phlox.

I've got some. Let me know if you still need some. I have a couple of different varieties, but I am not sure I know which is which anymore (you are talking Phlox divaricata or Phlox sylvestris aren't you? (forgive the spelling).
