Beautiful. Used to know a girl called this and she hated it! I also knew someone called Jonquil. Both were strapping lasses and it did look a bit incongruous.

I love this smell, in my top fragrances. This one is just starting to rebloom in the house right now. It fills the loft wih fragrance. Really wonderful.

My favorite thiing is the vanila scent. So lovely. I've over wintered it, it is natively a peruvian shrub. Not frost hardy, but will get bigger and bigger. Aphid and things love it, very sweet. I just started the battle as spring brings on new sweet flowering.
