Angel's breath?

[the.fee.fairy]

Does anyone know if this is a name for something that grows?

In the song 'Summer Wine', she says:

'Strawberries, cherries and an angel's breath in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things'

It got me thinking - is Angel's breath something that grows? Or something that you'd want to put in wine?

If it is...i feel a bath of 'Summer Wine' coming up.

google says plant

Seems a strange thing to call a sneezewort.

Don't remember the song (which seems to date back to 1967), but most Google references to it have "..an angle's kiss"

[Wombat]

Yeah, I remember the song but without seeing the lyrics I always thought they sang "an angel kissing spring...."

Well, there you go!

Apparently the leaves are edible and aromatic, might give a nice flavour to a summer wine depending on what they taste like!

Dammit! Having listened to the song again, it is Angels Kiss.

Back to the drawing board.

There's a tenuous link to this: http://www.pfaf.org/database/plants.php ... a+sasanqua
being called Angel's kiss, but its only on a random website to see which plants carry some kind of bug.

Still, its edible!
