Reseda odorata |
 |
| | Seedpods develop from the bottom of the flowering stem up |
Grown for its scent more than its flowers. And I'm not a fragrance gardener - my nose doesn't have the heightened sensitivity required to really appreciate the garden perfumes. The flowers aren't worth the trouble, so I doubt I'll be growing it again. But heck, you gotta try all plants at least once (I have a ways to go!)

| Wendy | Mar 12, 2020 | I have a small greenhouse, and I always make sure to have at least one pot of mignonette in it through the winter: on any sunny day, the waft of sweetness as you open the greenhouse door is worth the trouble.
Nice! |
