Causes mine to flower especially well this spring. A quick sniff at
twilight detects no fragrance; might be different in morning or
midday when bees are active (though they don't seem to frequent mine).
I doubt that climatic effects would influence scent; if it has bees to
attract, it would do it cold or warm, wet or dry.
