It's true I/we put in a lot of effort at this time of year, but come summer (in the UK that's those two consecutive hot days in August, of course) we can sit out there, drinks in hand, and reap our rewards.

It is actually a seedling from last year that never flowered and survived the winter (admirably) in a sheltered corner, hence its advanced stage of growth and size. We have a few <em>Nicotiana sylvestris</em> that are herbaceous so won't be scenting the air for a couple of months yet. Ornamental nicotiana hybrids smell gorgeous, but we will buy them as plugs this year as we're too late for sowing them indoors.
