Name: Chantell Middle of Virginia (Zone 7a) You're worth it!
If only!! The fragrance buffet, I came home to this evening. Your turn to share.
“Little girl, why are you doing this? You can’t save all these starfish. You can’t begin to make a difference!” After a few moments thought, she bent down, picked up another starfish & hurled it as far as she could into the ocean. Then she looked up at the man and replied, “Well, I made a difference to that one!” Be the change you wish to see in the world. http://www.stillsthatspeak.com...
I love the scent of alyssum and tobacco flowers and always include them. I mix the alyssum between other flowers and they're about 30' away from where I sit, so you only smell them if the breeze is just right. I can't take the constant scent even if it is pleasant, it just gets overpowering. The 2nd photo is Blushing Princess Alyssum. I usually have Violet Knight as well but couldn't find it anywhere this year for some reason.
These I posted in another forum, but they're a few new Nicotianas I tried this year, Cranberry Isles and Starlight Dancer. They're not as fragrant though as Alata, so I think next year I'll just stick with Alata.
