Last month's Name That Bloom Contest subject was the Black Locust Tree, Robinia pseudoacacia 'Purple Robe.' Check in to see who was the first to give us the right answer and while you're here, check out this month's mystery flower, too.
Many thanks, Vicki and Tee. If this mild weather continues here, I'll have outdoor flowers next month. This is about the fourth year we've had Zone 7 winters here in Zone 5. I've been very tempted to try a few varieties hardy only to 6 or 7.
Gardener was the label imprinted on me when the souls were handed out and so be it. --Margaret Roach (Thank you, Sharon!) Notes from the Garden: Articles of interest on all aspects of gardening Cottage-in-the-Meadow Gardens: Come on in and take the tour! Check out the photos!
