  • Question

    If possible, would you please identify this hardy flowering plant? It has flowered since this summer into December now. It grows in patio boxes in downtown Boston, just off the Charles River.

    Answer

    Dear Jules, I'm sorry I cannot help you with this question. Some cultivated species are difficult to identify, especially because their origin (i.e., where they were first cultivated) is unknown, and this information is very helpful in determining the identity of the plant. Best wishes.
