Lol... same here, Grammazoo. free summer candy! it tastes as good as it smells... I pick it for my bunny as a special treat. It is one of nature's truly "clean" smells.
Thanks Irish!

Thanks Karen... the scent of the blossom is in clover honey... delish! but the nectar in the blossom is sweet and the flower actually has a pleasant vegetable taste along with the sweetness of the nectar. I like to munch the blossoms!
