The effects of the floral fragrance

This plant's floral fragrance is not only non-toxic, it even has a very high utilization rate. It can be made into essences, spices, and so on.

Notes on cultivation

It was mentioned above that although the fragrance it gives off is not poisonous, its other pollen is toxic. Although the toxin is not strong, uncomfortable symptoms can still appear, so during care, try not to get close to the flowers.
