Ask The Gardener - "How can I incorporate a lunar theme...?"

(Tribune)

Q: How can I incorporate a lunar theme in my garden to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the moon landing?
A: It’s only fitting that a full moon occurs just before we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing on Saturday, July 20. Pick a few plants with celestial names to enliven your garden for this historic event.
The moonflower (Ipomoea alba) is a striking, easy-to-grow annual vine. This night bloomer unfurls fragrant, tubular flowers with a face about 5 inches wide.
