Heliotrope? Nice. I didn’t know that they would grow indoors. Is it very fragrant?

I'm going to try it out in a container outside, along with the thyme. It does have a mild vanilla scent already :)

Hoping the aphids won't get to it come spring. I had a lot of problems with them last year on my calibrachoas 😩
