I brought this plant off ebay last year and it arrived so small and no lable so i put it in a tub and forgot about it and its grown into a lovely plant full of flowers the wildlife have been loving it especialy a robin .. The leaves are slightly hairy to touch .. no smell to the flower..

... and a 3rd vote for honesty. If you know any flower arrangers, they may want the seed heads when they appear. They are lovely, but seed all over the place!

Thank you .. :beer: :T

I have just labled it .. I remember this one now .. because of the seed pods ..

I am surprised to hear it doesn't have a smell! Usually honesty has a lovely fragrance at night. Check it early evening to see if it has a lovely smell.

Could it be a wallflower? There is a purple variety?

Yes you mean the bowes mauve.



The flower does look like that and they dont smell but the leaves arent hairy. Its a wonderful wallflower I get loads of cuttings from mine and also have a yellow version
