  Thank youuuu <3 They are awesome, aren't they?
  I have no idea about the smell. The flowers are pretty small, and I think my back was killing me that day (so I didn't stoop down to smell them). Posted 5 years ago

The Richweed

''Collinsonia canadensis'', commonly called richweed, is a perennial herb in the mint family. It produces lemon-scented flowers in mid-summer, a time when little else is in bloom in densely shaded forests.
