MIGNONETTE 
(Reseda odorata) 
Mignenette has long been a favorite with those 
who have bee gardens. It is an annual which 
comes from North Africa and has been widely dis- 
tributed in ornamental gardens. The bloom is very 
fragrant, Some very extravagant claims have 
been made as to the amount of honey to be se- 
cured from this source. While there is no proof that 
such yields can be secured the flowers are very 
attractive to the bees and it seems probable that

be harvested. Try it in your garden.
