Key pattern

Opposite or alternate leaves, sometimes finely divided, on herbs and shrubs; regular, five-lobed, often fragrant tubular flowers open flat-faced at the mouth, ripening into a small three-chambered capsule.

Many species release a distinctive skunky or musky scent from the foliage when brushed or crushed, quite different from the sweet fragrance of their own flowers.
