Fragrant Plants
Spring/summer fragrance. From May to November find the glossy, emerald-green leaves of 'Veitchii' covered with intensely fragrant, velvety white flowers. This prolific bloomer is a favorite in the garden and also valued as a cut flower.
Spring/summer fragrance. The Burmese Honeysuckle has sweetly fragrant 6 inch long flowers that start white and become yellow at maturity and finally orange. This is a quick-growing, evergreen vine that looks more like a sculptured tree as it ages. This fragrant vine is especially suited to entryways.
Summer/fall fragrance. Enormous dangling orange-yellow trumpet flowers drip from Angel's Trumpet Gold to fill the summer night air with a delicious fragrance. The dramatic display persists from late spring until autumn.
Summer/fall fragrance. One of the best performing Hybrid Teas, the showy 'Double Delight' is striking in the garden for its raspberry-tipped creamy white petals and enticing spicy scent. Long, sturdy stems keep blooms looking their best in the garden or in a vase. Petals age to a rich red that lasts.
Late winter/spring fragrance. The beloved Pink Jasmine is a true "star" with its abundance of fragrant star-shaped flowers that start as pink buds and open to brilliant white. This evergreen, fast-climbing vine fills the garden with its sweet redolent scent as early as February to happily chase away the gloom of winter.
Summer fragrance. Breathe in and relax with lavender. Plant a swath of 'Provence' for a fragrant hedge or meadow-like effect. What sets this lavender apart are its tall 2 foot silver-gray spikes lined with purple blooms that start in July and continue into fall.
Late winter/early spring fragrance. The lovely Winter Daphne puts on her show in late winter with nosegay clusters of pink buds that bloom to fragrant white flowers against a backdrop of variegated foliage. This evergreen shrub has a rounded form to about four feet tall and wide.
Summer fragrance. This Heliotrope has old-fashioned beauty with a twist. While the plant's deep purple flowers and vanilla scent capture the attention, the dark-colored leaves provide extra interest. Perfect for a butterfly garden.
Spring fragrance. The legendary scent of lilac is a sure sign of spring. 'Lavender Lady' puts on a lavish springtime show of highly-fragrant lavender blooms produced without winter chilling! Fast grower to 12 ft. tall by 6 ft. wide.
Late spring/summer fragrance. Madagascar Jasmine is prized for its lasting waxy white flowers and intense fragrance. This vine blooms heavily in June and through the summer. The blossoms are a favorite in bridal bouquets, corsages and decorations.
Year-round fragrance. The heavenly scent of Sweet Olive is valued for its powerful apricot aroma from its deceptively small white flowers. This evergreen tree or shrub is legendary for romance in its native China. Osmanthus blooms heavily in spring and early summer and will continue to bloom sporadically throughout the year.
Year-round fragrance. The sweet strong fragrance of this tropical tree lasts all day and is especially strong at night. The scent exudes from both the flowers and leaves. It is the oil of this Michelia that is the essence of JOY, the world's most expensive perfume. The flowers bloom year round with pure white or yellow-orange petals.
