Prettiest and best smelling flowers, what do you think?

[Wifezilla]

I don't have a lot of flowers in the garden that have scent, but I do have a Sweet Woodruff plant.
"Plants typically grow 8-12" tall and feature fragrant, lance-shaped, dark green leaves in whorls of 6-8 along square stems. Small, fragrant, 4-petaled, white flowers appear in loose cymes in spring. Plants emit a strong odor of freshly mown hay when foliage is crushed or cut. Aromatic intensity of the foliage increases when dried, thus dried leaves are popularly used in sachets or potpourris. Plants have also been used commercially in perfumes. Leaves are sometimes used to flavor teas and cold fruit drinks. Leaves are also used to make May wine, a punch made from white wine flavored with woodruff, orange and pineapple. Woodruff comes from Old English meaning wood that unravels, in probable reference to the creeping rootstock of the plant. Formerly known as Asperula odorata."

I really like how it smells.

Honeysuckle- I look forward to the first flush of blooms every spring. Fills the house with scent. (and it's just starting to bloom now)
Also Butterfly Bush (Buddelia Davidii) I grow my 3 as small trees. When they bloom in late summer the whole yard smells sweet.

Alot of my favs have been listed previously...but I also love Freesia...They smell so good...IDK how else to explain it...but my kids say that they smell like Fruit Loops....lol

Try moonflowers for a vine. They bloom at night.

Lavender

You shouldn't let most herbs flower, but they are nice to add some "scents" to your garden. Pinch them back right before company is over to make them smell extra good.

Heliotrope

I really like gardenias but they are more of a houseplant/patio plant (at least up here).

I love cut flowers in my house that smell amazing so I grow Lilac, Gardenia, 4 dif kinds of roses ( 2 have a citrus smell ), Jasmine, Sweepea, peonies, star gazer lily, calla lily. There are a ton of flowers in this yard that my grandmother planted that don t really smell at all but are very pretty. The fence across the street is covered in honeysuckle and I sometimes use that as a filler in my bouquets. It smells wonderful!

Citrus trees have a bloom that is very fragrant.

Sweet peas! Love them! They flower most of the summer and last well as a cut flower. Their smell is divine and the colours just gorgeous.

I agree on the alyssum for fragrance too. Just scatter some seeds and water. I find the white has a strong scent than purple.
I like lily of the valley too.
