All the Dirt on Gardening

Spring is such a busy season for gardeners. Planting, weeding and getting the grounds ready for spending evenings outside. It's all a celebration of renewal.

Heliotrope is a Hot-Spot Workhorse

Heliotrope is supposed to be hardy in zones 10 and 11 but this gem has returned for its third year in a hot, zone 7, sidewalk bed.

It is not the Heliotrope that has the vanilla scented flowers. This one trails wonderfully and serves as a ground cover, preventing most weeds from spring through fall.

Any ideas about specific identification?
