Hesperis matronalis



This biennial, also known as sweet rocket has been flowering for the past couple of weeks. I grew it from seed last year and planted it out in the autumn. It is said to self seed so it will be interesting to see if it does or not. The younger plants did suffer a bit from slugs and snails, but a large clump did remain. It smells sweet in the evenings.
