| Posted by SongofJoy (Clarksville, TN - Zone 6b) on Nov 23, 2011 2:39 PM The flowers of Gynura aurantiaca are often reported to be malodorous. However, I have not found that to be the case with the plants I've had. The flowers can always be removed if the smell is a problem [ Reply to this comment | |
