The flowers are very fragrant and yield perfumed oil. They are used in cooking and medicinally to treat conjunctivitis.
Material from outside China varies greatly in corolla size and shape and, to a lesser extent, in leaf shape. It is not clear whether a species complex or a single polymorphic species, possibly including the two following species, is involved.
