Looking for a unique plant to add to your garden? Look no further than Dictamnus albus , also known as Burningbush Dittany or Gas Plant. This long-lived plant makes a substantial clump in your garden and is popular both for its beautiful white or pinkish flowers and its fragrant aroma that resembles lemon peel. But what sets this plant apart is the fact that it contains a volatile oil that can ignite and burn for a short time if the weather is just right, earning it its name "Burning-bush." It's an easy plant to grow, preferring a dry, sunny spot with some lime. Don't miss out on this ornamental wonder, both beautiful and fascinating.
