Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the "Blue Dahlia", Stella comes to Memphis to start a new life. She hopes that she will get a managerial position at a garden center. Who is the owner of In the Garden?

Answer: Roz

Roz built her own business, from the ground up. She managed to do it as a single mom of three boys. Roz's husband died many years before she opened In the Garden. Over the years, as she shares with Stella, she has added several new areas, such as a small Christmas tree area.
2. Roz and Stella have a singular connection due to the fact that both of them are single mothers, of all boys no less. Roz has three children, but Stella only has two. What are their names?

Answer: Luke and Gavin

Just like any siblings, they have their own rivalries. Gavin, as the oldest brother, feels he has an obligation to torment Luke. For example, Gavin has a certain look that he gives Luke when he is attempting to humiliate Luke. It is said in the book that Stella believes that Gavin actually practices this look in the mirror with the intention of using it later to torture Luke. I guess boys will be boys.
3. At the beginning of the book, Stella and Logan don't get along very well. He's just a laid-back guy, while Stella is incredibly, and often annoyingly, organized. Somehow, they start to become attracted to one another. Who asked the other on their 'outing' to Graceland?

Answer: Logan

Logan asked Stella out to Graceland, even though he had no idea what gave him the idea to do that. Stella became so confused by this, she couldn't determine whether it was an outing or a date. Of course, it was a date!
4. After Stella and her boys have settled in, another visitor arrives. Young, determined, and extremely pregnant, who is this vibrant character?

Answer: Hayley

One afternoon, Stella answers the knock at the front door and finds Hayley. As some sort of complicated relation, Hayley came to Memphis to look for a job. Her father died, and now she was going to have a baby. It took a lot of guts for her to try a different life at this, what many would consider, a pivotal part of her life. But, soon enough, Stella finds her to be the best thing she could ask for.
5. Stella and the boys meet another resident of the house. But, this one isn't exactly corporeal. The ghost makes her first appearance to the boys, as she enjoys being with the children of the house. She sings a lovely lullaby to them to help them sleep. What song does she sing?

Answer: Lavender's Blue Dilly-Dilly

The ghost has been a resident of the house for quite some time. Roz hasn't ever noticed this ghost being harmful to the other people in the house. Unfortunately, Stella finds out all too soon that the ghost does not approve of her dating men, in this case, Logan.
6. Roz has three sons, with only one, Harper, living at home and working in the greenhouses. However, when Harper and his brothers were younger, another boy was always tagging along. This little boy grew up into a man, and never left the estate. What is the name of this character?

Answer: David

David now works in the house, as he is a part of the family just like Roz's sons. Fortunately for him, as the only gay member of the family, the ghost doesn't bother him. He is always the strong shoulder for everyone, and always provides food and drink at the most opportune times.
7. Hayley comes to the house 6 months pregnant. One day, while in the greenhouse with Harper, her water breaks (even though Harper thinks she just peed on herself) and Stella gets her to the hospital. She opts to go natural, and allows almost everyone to be a part of the labor. When Harper arrives at the hospital, he brings Hayley flowers. What were the flowers, which ended up being the name of Hayley's baby?

Answer: Lily

Hayley decided to name her Lily because of the gorgeous flowers Harper brought her. She used the flowers as her focus while she was going through labor.
8. As Stella decides that it might not be so bad to be in love with Logan, the ghost has a major temper tantrum. The ghost ends up blocking the door to the kid's room and Stella climbs around to the balcony. Stella attempts to calm the ghost down and eventually connects with her. The ghost writes a message for Stella -- her name. What is the ghost's name?

Answer: Amelia

Stella, Roz, and Hayley are engulfed in this mystery with Amelia, the resident ghost. Amelia cares deeply for the children in the house, and she does not trust men. As Stella becomes a bit more serious about this new relationship, Amelia doesn't mind letting Stella know how upset she is about it. This man, of course, will take away the children. Amelia cannot deal with that prospect.
9. The ghost causes such a ruckus in the house that Roz finally decides to look into who the ghost might have been. The search starts in the attic, looking through the family bible and old photographs. However, after seeing how much time this could take, she decides to hire a professional. What is the name of this newcomer?

Answer: Mitch Carnegie

Mitch Carnegie is a professor and does work in research, and Roz hopes that he would be able to search through records in order to determine who this ghost is. He doesn't believe that there is actually a ghost. That is, until he comes to the house and sees her first-hand.
10. This book revolves around Stella; her boys, her new job, her new home, and her new romance. The resident ghost openly lets Stella know how she feels about dating Logan. Even with the ghost's temper tantrums, Stella finds herself thinking about being with Logan for the long run. In the end, does Stella let herself fall in Logan's arms and overcome the ghost's misgivings?

Answer: Yes

Stella does, in fact, decide to let her heart take her into Logan's arms for the rest of their lives. When Stella decides for herself that she loves Logan, the ghost starts one of her great tantrums. Fortunately, Stella talks to her and reassures her that the boys will be safe and sound with Logan as their new father. Stella and Logan will be married and have a long life together.
