Comments (33)Nobody's mentioned ricepaper plant blooms, they smell like honey. Hoya carnosa smells like chocolate(actually, it smells exactly like cocao butter to me), Trachelospermum jasminoides all have lovely scents, the cultivar 'Yellow Star' smells like Grape NeHi; Jasminum polyanthum smells like bubblegum. I love the scent of Osmanthus fragrans and Michelia figo, and Jasmine sambac is heavenly. 'Double Delight' rose is wonderful but I have a climbing rose with smallish pink flowers that has a scent so powerful that a single bloom perfumes the entire yard. I love the smell of my butterfly gingers and Crinum americanus are also delightful. I was very surprised this past spring to discover that Loropetalum chinense has a very pretty, soft smell and I have a really lovely double pink Nerium oleander that smells like baby powder. And of course there's that peachy smelling yellow plumeria(actually, all plumies are pretty nice but the peach scented one is the best). Well, I could go on(and on, and on, and on, I adore plants that have a nice scent, lol) but I'll let somebody else take the floor....See MoreStinking Plants!
Comments (24)I am convinced that not everyone experiences the same fragrance from the same plant. Our noses, like our taste buds are linked to our genes, and really are "variable". Cleome volunteers all over my garden. I think it smells like lemonaid--and I love the smell of autumn clematis, even though it is a bit of a thug. But if you want to talk stinky plants--I grew up in the Pacific Northwest and during midspring a plant blooms in the bogs and swamps there that is truly beautiful. An arum I think as it has a lovely yellow hood over a "jack." Don't know the scientific name; everybody just called it "Skunk Cabbage" because IT REALLY SMELLS LIKE A SKUNK--and hundreds of them altogether was a powerful experience. But what do you all think the blossoms of elderberry smell like? Tennessee Williams wrote a play (Wish I could remember the name) in which one character insults another by saying "Your mother smells of elderberry blossoms." I didn't know what that meant until I stuck my nose into a huge umbel....See MoreMarch/April FOTESS Round Robin Poetry Swap!
Comments (150)Evening All! It was the same here, Tuesday, Margo, overcast and windy but the wind wasn't bitterly cold, which was a welcome change. My mini daffs are starting to bloom! The crocuses are still going strong. And I too am still tired. Bummer! I was reading back thro the posts on this thread and way back at the beginning of this swap, I promised to keep the Robin's flight plan posted. You may have noticed, I haven't done that! So here it is, a little late, and I'll try my best to keep it updated! I sent to Peggy in Washington; Peggy sent it on to Heidi in Nebraska; Heidi mailed it on to Annie in California; Annie mailed it to Ruth in Texas; Ruth sent it flying to Melinda in Arkansas; Melinda just sent it to Diane/Moonfire; Diane sends it to Jeanne/sandlapper_rose in South Carolina; Jeanne sends it to Alana/poisondartfrog in Kentucky; Alana sends it to Robin in Virginia; Robin sends it to Vina/flowergirl134 in New York; Vina sends it to Janine/Jaynine in Connecticut; Janine sends it to Suzanne/hibiscusfan in Ohio; Suzanne sends it to Margo/smitties in Ohio; and Margo will send it to Katie in Mississippi, who will send the completed poem back to me! Hope I didn't skip anyone! Have a great day tomorrow! Shirley!...See MoreStefan
