Your questions about better home and garden magazine

What flower is on this Better Homes and Gardens magazine cover?

I recently bought the “second printing” of Better Homes and Gardens’ “Easy Garden Guide: No-Fail Flowers.” It has a number of garden plants, mainly flowers, of course, but nowhere in the guide can I find the flower pictured on the cover. It’s a lovely purple flower with an odd look about it. The stamen are extremely pronounced, green, and they seem to be curling back on themselves. The petals, aside from being, well, purple, look a lot like leaves. The leaves themselves are actually more like a bunch of stems than actual leaves. The whole plant seems to be very pointy, all over the place, aside from the stamen. It’s a gorgeous, weird little flower, and I’d like to know if I can grow it here in Louisiana. The first few pages on the inside don’t have anything mentioning the cover flower from what I can see. Has anyone seen this little magazine? What type of flower is this?

does better homes and gardens magazine have horoscopes?

Anyone have Better Homes and Gardens – January 2007?

We are remodeling our kitchen, and we liked a kitchen we saw in a Better Homes and Gardens magazine. My wife tore out the page, page Z4 from January 2007 issue. I got this issue out of the library, but no page Z4 (z as in zebra) (Better by Design – Comfort comes to the kitchen article). It must have been some supplement. Does anyone have this issue with this page? We are desperate for the kitchen specs from this article, which they often print at the end of the magazine. Please let me know if you have it, or have an idea what magazine it is really in…thanks!

Rings in Ad for Better Homes and Cake Magazine?

There is an ad in an older Better Homes and Garden and the other magazine that has a cake on the cover every month (I am drawing a blank on the name). The add has a womens ring on a cherry or a little red fruit and the mens rings on a walnut. If someone could tell me the designer of those rings or even if the ad states what style rings they are that would be great! It is driving me crazy, I saw it once and fell in love with the rings! The cake magazine that for sure has the ad inside has on the cover is a mint tart style dessert. Thank you so much!

I need some help finding a recipe please. It is from a Better Homes and Gardens magazine from in the 80s…?

for stuffing/ dressing that has sausage, chestnuts and pistachios in it. It is for a friend who lost his recipe b/c of Katrina. Who would have thought everybody should take their recipe books with them? Anyway, I’ve already checked the Better Homes and Gardens website and they do not have it listed. Any help would be appreciated!
My friend has already checked at the library. They did not have what he was looking for.
The recipe is for dressing and has sausage, chestnuts and pistacchios in it. Do not say go to the library or check the internet. My friend check the library already and they were no help. I have looked it up on the internet and not found it.
