Those dratted blue things, what are they called, with the grey blue
leaves and the little purple honey-scented flowers. Someone will know.
Pretty, but plant once and be forever plagued...

Cerinthe major?

The wild version is called Honeywort - I didn't know why - didn't
realise it smelt of honey.

Doh! yes, that's the one!

Mine have quite a distinctive scent, specially the ones that have invaded
the greenhouse.
