Hi Canadian Crabgrass,
The wonder of it all. Generally plants that are fragrant after sundown are trying to attract night flying insects like moths to pollenate them. Gives us humans something nice to look forward to in the evening!
Thanks for sharing that.

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

Another of my peperomias is going through the flowering stage and is sprouting countless long, thin spikes. A few days ago, I realized that those spikes have a fragrance! And I am not drunk or hallucinating
Mother Nature will never cease to amaze me...
