Suggested Scented Flowers to your garden
Flowers don’t have only the beautiful color to enjoy your garden but also the sweet fragrance. If you’ve the scented flowers in your garden, you will get also the good scent and beautiful scene at the same time.
1. SWEET PEA
Supreme in fragrance and cut flower value, sweet pea blossoms can flood a balcony with their perfume. Sweet peas offer one of the widest color ranges in the plant kingdom, and include the various colors such as navy blues, pastel lavenders, pinks and the purest whites. Each variety and each color has a slightly different scent. The ruffled blossoms look like little butterflies all aflutter. Most sweet peas are climbers, but dwarf bush types are available and more appropriate for most containers.
2. MAGNOLIA
Magnolias grow best in full sun, at least half a day minimum. These trees tend to get leggy and lose their lower branches if they get too much shade. Flower production suffers also.
The Magnolia flowers may be white, pink or purple. Magnolia flowers size ranges from 3-12 inch in diameter. When planting magnolias dig in as much compost as possible and work the soil in an area twice the diameter of the root ball of the plant.
3. LILAC
Lilac is one of top favorite scented flower among many people due to its strong perfume and sweet color. Lilac plants can be tiny shrubs or small-sized trees. Branches covered in dense blossoms are sometimes sold as cut flowers in late spring, but the four-pointed flowers wilt quickly. Lilacs need to experience full sunlight at least six hours daily.
Lilac bush can shade itself. If it becomes overgrown and dense, you may find that a few flowers will only appear around the edges
4. ROSE
It’s known that rose is queen of flower. It’s the symbol of love as it has the gorgeous various color and sweet fragrance. But not every type of rose has the strong perfume. It depends on each rose species.
5. FREESIA
Freesia is a popular bulb flower that gives off a lovely fragrance. Freesia can grow outside in full sunshine in spring and summer but you also can plant the bulbs in a well-drained soil in mid-winter.
6. HELIOTROPE
A favorite of many fragrance garden lovers, heliotrope is sometimes called Cherry-Pie Plant for its delicious aroma. The large scented flower heads, slightly reminiscent of brain coral, range in color from white to dark violet and balance atop 12-inch dark-leaved compact plants. The paler flowers often have the strongest cherry pie or sweet almond scent.
7. GARDENIA
Gardenias symbolize purity and sweetness. They indicate secret love.
Gardenias are very fragrant creamy-white flowers with glossy, dark-green leaves. Gardenia flowers are solitary or in small clusters, white or pale yellow.
Gardenias should be planted in well conditioned soil containing peat moss and compost. Gardenias need high humidity and full sun or some shading in the summer
