1 in stock

Description

Liking damp ground, meadowsweet smells of honey and has frothy clusters of flowers. It grows up to 1.25 m. It is the food plant for the larvae of several moth species including the emperor moth, grey pug, Hebrew character, lime-speck pug, mottled beauty, and the satellite. Many species of insects are attracted to the flowers. 

The flowers are sometimes used as flavourings for jams. The name may have originally come from it being used to flavour mead.
