Papilionaceum

Grown for its large, pear-green, corded leaves that are fuzzy and aromatic when crushed, this variety tolerates light shade very well, making it perfect for shady corners of your garden. Its simple, delicate pink flowers have larger upper petals than the lower ones, giving it a graceful, butterfly-like appearance. The leaves of this variety exude a distinctive lemon scent with wet notes, offering a unique and fascinating sensory experience.
