    An Algarve Garden 2024 to 2026

    The scent was so strong on the Brug today it was almost overpowering in the house at least 20 meters away. Needless to say, the house smells heavenly.

    Queen of the Night seems to be the consensus here. I've got a few red ones that keep coming back year after year but honestly couldn't tell you what variety they are anymore, the labels vanished ages ago. The red ones always seem the most stubborn about returning which suits me fine.
