Questionis it to early to put your tropical plants out yet i live in texas, in the dallas area.
what do u know about a plant called MOON GLOW?
AnswerThere are a whole bunch of hybrids called "Moonglow" - breeders can register the same name as long as there's no plant in the species that's already got that title.
So we have Moonglow bushes, Moonglow trees, Moonglow flowers.
Pyrus communis Moonglow (a pear tree): http://www.mobot.org/gardeninghelp/plantfinder/Plant.asp?code=N380
Magnolia virginiana Moonglow: http://www.mobot.org/GARDENINGHELP/PLANTFINDER/plant.asp?code=C906 and http://www.greatplantpicks.org/display?id=3193&searchterm=small+tree&searchtype=...
Juniperus scopulorum Moonglow: http://www.djroger.com/moonglow_juniper.htm
Moonglow hybrid rose: http://www.helpmefind.com/gardening/l.php?l=21.75392
all of which are hardy in your zone (8a and thank you for supplying your location, it does make things easier).
Then there's
Fuschia Moonglow, a tropical plant: http://www.overthegardengate.net/garden/archives/template.asp?LinkID=231
Salvia greggii Moonglow: http://www.hillcountrygardens.com/newsletter/Newsletter-5072007-SHCG.pdf and http://www.dallasgardening.com/plant_gallery.html
and a mild, sweet, orange "Moonglow" tomato: http://www.gardenguides.com/96481-grow-moonglow-tomatoes.html
The Salvia also goes by the name "Autumn Sage".
Please narrow this down - somehow. Did you buy it in a greenhouse, or was it growing in a field in a small pot (could be a tree sapling). Inquiring minds want to know...
