Honesty is a good old-fashioned, easy to grow, hardy biennial plant, known for its seed pods as well as its fragrant Spring flowers. The distinctive flat, translucent papery pods, which hold the seeds, are often used in dried flower arranging or can be left on the plant for winter interest in the garden. The white flowers in May and June are very attractive to pollinating insects. Honesty is also used as a caterpillar food plant by the Orange-tip butterfly. Does well in fertile moist but well drained soil, in full sun or partial shade.
Height approx 90 cms
