help me think of a name of this flower

i'm having a senior hour and the harder I try the further back in the recesses of my mind goes the name.

It is an annual, grows close to the ground, and very aromatic. Comes in white, pink. I can practically smell it, but can't get the name.
It is very common, every garden center sells it. I think I'll have to visit a garden center to find the name :)

Someone asked me for a nice-smelling flower, which is why I'm trying to think of it.

I think it starts with an "a", lol, but no guarantee.

thanks,
ellen

YES!
thank you.
You can't imagine how happy it makes me to know that. :)

(I'm glad at least I had the "a" right.)

Wow, I didn't really think I was right. I always tell everybody I'm a lucky guesser. If you have a good knowledge base and are a good guesser, you do really well at Jeopardy like me.

Ideal Jeopardy categories: Annuals. Perennials. Biennials. Weeds. LOL
