What do you mean by "from the entire last month"? The expression you
have will give for June, for example, '2012-06-01 00:00:00' which is
already in DATETIME format (which I assume is how your data are stored
in that column). So, if you want everything from the first of June it
would be
$sql ="SELECT WHATEVER FROM WHEREVER ";
$sql .= "WHERE THE_COL_NAME >= '2012-" . date('m') . "-01 00:00:00'";
Note that the final value of $sql in this case, for June, would be
SELECT WHATEVER FROM WHEREVER WHERE
THE_COL_NAME >= '2012-06-01 00:00:00'
