All this garden talk has us wondering: What’s Georgia’s state flower?
Correct Answer: Cherokee rose
Fact: The plant is technically an invasive species, introduced to the Southern US during the late 1700s. The Cherokee reference of the name ties it to the folklore that each petal on the white blooms represents a tear shed by the Cherokee women as they walked the Trail of Tears.
