Large white orchid-like flowers on this cousin of the Bizzy Lizzie. The scent is superb and in our garden it over-winters in a sheltered spot but is cut back by cold every year. Grows 4 to 5 ft., more in the greenhouse, where the remarkable perfume is best experienced. We've put this in both the Perennials and the Tender & Exotics shops because where and how you grow it depends on where you live.
