I love these, saw lots at the garden centre early on but never got round to buying any. Next year.....

First time i've ever had them, the slugs and snails love them.

In that case they are a definite no-no for my garden. Do they really smell of chocolate, I've been told they do?

I have to hurry past these in the nurseries if they are in flower as I am tempted to eat one. They have such a strong chocolate smell. Lovely photo.

They are nice, put them in pots as if i'd left them in the garden the slugs and snails would have taken the lot of them. mind you i can now over winter them in my greenhouse with them being in a pot.
