Local floral sights:Unusual blue flower at Longwood Gardens is real. But it’ll ghost you very soon.
The blooms are being given away to make room for the annuals that need to be planted. Tulips are the only flowers authorized to be removed.
The event is rain or shine and will be first come, first dig. Most areas are picked over within minutes, so it may be a good idea to arrive early.
