I bought Color Parade several years ago from White Flower Farm, they seem to change the verities they carry from time to time.
Hard for me to describe the scent unless I have it right under my nose it think it is CRS syndrome, ha ha.
I need to get Korean Spice there is a Shorter form, Compacta, BlueStone carries it, I wonder how fast it will grow?
'Fragrant Cloud' Nicotiana didn't seem to have the scent like 'Only-the Lonely' Nicotiana.
Which brings me to a question that I have been looking for the answer to for a long time, does the soil or nutrients in the soil add to the fragrance or intensiveness of the fragrance?
If you are looking for a fragrant Hosta try HoneyBell, and the flowers are just the right height to stick your nose into.
This little guy also enjoyed the scent.
