Our featured flower of the month is the Cleome. The cleome is an easy to grow annual flower that belongs to the Cleomaceae and Brassicaceae plant families. Gardeners have admired this spidery flower with its open trusses of blooms in multiple shades of violet, pink and white. It is a full sun, drought tolerant flower capable of reaching heights of up to 6 feet. I like to start seeds in early spring in well draining soil for blooms that should last until first frost. Cheers
