Fragrance: A sweet or pleasant smell.
In gardening, fragrance is a wonderful bonus, adding another sensory dimension to the experience. The sweet perfume of roses, the spicy scent of dianthus, or the calming aroma of lavender can transform a garden into a truly immersive and enjoyable space. Fragrance can come from flowers, leaves, or even the bark of certain plants, and it can vary in intensity and character depending on the time of day and weather conditions.
For home gardeners, fragrance can be a key factor in plant selection. Imagine strolling through your garden and being enveloped by the intoxicating scent of blooming jasmine or the refreshing citrus notes of a lemon tree. Fragrant plants can be placed near seating areas, walkways, or windows so you can easily enjoy their aroma. Consider the bloom time of different fragrant plants to create a succession of scents throughout the growing season.
