Janice,
How very odd that both hubby and I found the scent sweet and pleasant.
I think I will leave it in its "safe" place odor-wise until I can check
out what the scent is like this season. I believe "fetid" is the word
that one catalog used to describe the smell--an odor I have always in
the past found to be pretty sickening. It's a shame as the plant is so
pretty otherwise and its always so nice to have fall bloomers.
Thanks for the info--saves me and the plant from a move to more prime
"sniffing" real estate.
