I have a question for whoever can direct me closer to an answer:
Brugmansia flowers seem to emit fragrance in waves - if you stand downwind in the same spot, the fragrance fades and intensifies every few minutes.
Why? My casual hypothesis is that might help pollinators target better. Is that even a thing?
Curious.
