It is thought that this plant originally came from the Balkans. It has been in Britain since the 16th Century. This is a popular cottage garden plant, which self-seeds and is mainly pollinated by beetles.

Thank you for the warning. I was reading about this, someone commented they thought there was a rotting creature in the flower bed but it was the flowers!

They’d be gorgeous scattered here and there in a garden. Love that they self-seed.
