Forgot Name

I always forget the name of this plant. It grows wild in coastal cities of California. Photo taken at Cardiff-by-the-Sea, San Diego County, CA. on Feb. 22, 2012.

It's not Heliothrope. I wish I could remember the name!

Oh I see - it just reminded me of that.

Heliotropium arborescens is a common evergreen shrub here. It can grow much taller than this plant. I do love the fragrance!

Yes I like them too. I grow them from seeds. They don't last through our winters.

I had a 6ft/2m tall plant in the ground, which I trained as standard, in the San Francisco Bay Area...it lived for many years.
