P3130552 Viola odorata-Sweet violet.
Hit Explore. Mar 13.09. #317.
The flowers of Aphrodite, goddess of love and symbol of Athens.
Oh what a heavenly scent but you will find after a few seconds of scenting it you will lose the fragrance until you approach the flower again for another sniff. This is because the flower contains ionine which dulls the sense of smell for a short while. For this reason the flowers were strewn on floors of damp buildings in the past to mask the musty smell.
The flowers can also be used to test for acidity. An acid turns them red and alkalies turn them green.
Whilst grateful for single invites PLEASE, PLEASE< PLEASE, I really DO NOT WANT MULTIPLE ones. PLEASE no graphics, spinning or flashing comments. They stress my eyes.
