Hesperis (Sweet Rocket)

Sweet Rocket is a tall perennial that thrives in sunny to shady spots and is often found in English country gardens. Umbels of white or pale lilac flowers on 3 to 4-feet stalks flourish from May to June and although short-lived, the plants often self-sow, making them good candidates for naturalizing.
