Nope, NO - although one of the words is right but not the whole. Another clue? I can inject a shot of colour and perfume into any garden! (that and the clue before should lead you to the latin name) but post the common name  |

Moving on..... I know there's a wine that smells of cat pee - luckily it doesn't usually taste of it I'm sure I know of a flower that smells of cat pee but I'll be blessed if I can think of it!!! Perhaps it isn't cat pee at all and I'm weeing up the wrong tree!!! ;D |
