Daubenya comata

The first Daubenya comata flower is open in this pot with 4 plants. The pollinator (bee) can be seen in the last photo top left.

A lovely plant Heinie and a little different from the reds, oranges and yellows that we've seen in other threads and at Wisley. Is it fragrant by any chance?

Lesley,
No, it is not fragrant. I wish it was because it is in my study now.

My largest seedling is also producing an inflorescence for the first time - I look forward to seeing it more, now that I have seen your pictures Heinie. The light green leaves with their central yellow stripe are also very attractive, I think.
