PERFUME DEEP PURPLE NICOTIANA
Nicotiana x sanderae
This is another nod to Greg, who mentioned in his post that he hadn't planted any Nicotiana this year.
This triggered a memory, I am sure I have seen a plant like that somewhere......
Oh yeah! In my garden.
Oooooohh....I love that colour. I don't think I've heard of that type of plant before. It's lovely.
ReplyDeleteVery nice colour and unique star shape, I like! I don't know if we have any of those over here... beautiful.
ReplyDeletesoooo gorgeous! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautifulllll flower... So vivid. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite plants for the scent alone is nicotiana , love this colour.
ReplyDeleteThat's my very favorite color - how pretty! I don't think I've ever seen it before.
ReplyDeleteOH I've never seen that lovely shade of nicotania in the states! Usually only pastels here! But you're right - on a breezeless evening, there is nothing quite so intoxicating as the scent of nicotania!
ReplyDeleteFor those of you here in the US - it is often called "flowering tobacco" in garden centers and catalogs.
