not sure what the variety is called (got it from a cutting at a B+B when I was in Torquay yrs ago when I went there for the Total Solar Eclipse) but it's a soft-pink colour that's single petalled that's about 6" high that does well in pots. Do you know whether other varieties have different scents or are they're generally of the clove kind? I've got 'Doris' as well that's got a similar smell (tho' not keen on their cheap-carnation-look ::)) I want to try out some white and bicoloured ones too.
