The flowers have a sweet, spicy fragrance reminiscent of cloves, becoming particularly noticeable in the evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe abundant blooms are highly attractive to bees, butterflies and other pollinating insects and make lovely additions to informal cut flower arrangements. Cutting spent flower spikes can encourage further flowering and also helps prevent unwanted self-seeding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flowers, young leaves, tender stems and immature seed pods are edible, with a fresh, slightly peppery flavour similar to cress. Older leaves become tough and are generally not used for eating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardy and adaptable, Dame's Rocket grows well in full sun or light shade and fits beautifully into cottage gardens, woodland edges and informal flower plantings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeed count: approximately 470 seeds\/g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximately 60 seeds per packet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to Plant (Australia)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTropics: Autumn to winter\u003cbr\u003eSubtropics: Autumn to winter\u003cbr\u003eMild climates: Autumn and spring\u003cbr\u003eCold climates: Spring to early summer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting \/ Sowing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSow directly where plants are to grow or raise in trays, covering the seed lightly.
