Painted Lady

Don’t let this little sweetie fool you. Her flowers might be small, but she’s an early bloomer with a scent that packs a (lady like) punch! Painted lady was first recorded in 1752, and there is a reason we all still grow her. While in ideal conditions she will grow up to 8’, I find she tends to hang out more at the 4-6’ height.
