Dame's Rocket has been grown in gardens since the Roman Empire, and this ornamental perennial is the excellent plant for meadows, naturalized areas or cottage gardens. Sweet Rocket habitats include woodland edges and openings, thickets, semi-shaded fence rows, banks of drainage ditches, vacant lots, and edges of yards.
