DAME\'S VIOLET (Sweet Rocket) Hesperis matronalis The latin translates to \"mother of the evening\". Bred very little since it became a popular cottage garden biennial 500 years ago. Still the same large spikes of purple blooms on tall 150 cm branching stems. Still the same sultry evening fragrance that drifts on those early summer nights. A favourite of the swallowtail butterfly. D.S. Dead-head for prolonged bloom period. Poor soil OK. Zone 3-9. II. O. SEED COUNT: 400 plus |
