I walked past a lovely rose bush and it smelled beautiful! Decided I’d like some fragrant flowers, plants, bushes, for my garden! Any recommendations? 😃 thank you!
Whatever nice-smelling thing is in front of my nose each day! Currently sweet peas and rosemary (I know it's not a floral smell but I have it where it is brushed often and it's lovely). Honeysuckle. Scented pelargoniums. Sarcococca for winter.
My favourite scents through the year are wallflowers (Erysimum cheiri), jonqilla daffodils (especially 'Sweetness') and pheasant's eye daffodils (Narcissus poeticus), Daphnes, Dianthus, Trachelosoermum jasminoides (absolutely fantastic at the moment), lilies, Sarcococca and Chimonanthes. I don't have any Rhodondendron luteum or Lonicera fragrantissima but I love the scent of both.
