Fill Your Garden with Summer Fragrance
02 Dec, 2024
Star Jasmine
Smothered in dainty white blooms, Star Jasmine will fill your garden with a sweet scent. Star Jasmine grow well in full sun, and well-draining soil rich in organic matter. This versatile plant can be trained up walls and pergolas, allowed to trail along the ground, or even grown in containers. With its hardy nature and year-round greenery, Star Jasmine is an ideal choice for adding structure and fragrance to any part of your garden.
Stephanotis
With fragrant white blooms contrasting beautifully against glossy, dark green foliage, Stephanotis is a must-have in any summer garden. Blooming from spring through autumn, its vining growth habit brings the scent of the tropics to new heights. Stephanotis grow well in full sun and acidic, well-draining soil but need to be in a warm, sheltered area over winter. Consider using them to frame a doorway or archway, creating a beautifully scented entrance to your garden.
Gardenia
Popular for their white blooms with rich, intoxicating fragrance, Gardenia make a stunning addition to any summer garden. These subtropical evergreen plants grow well in dappled shade and prefer acidic, well-draining soil. Blooming throughout spring and summer, consider growing gardenia in pots on your patio or by your front door to enjoy their wonderful fragrance as soon as you step outdoors.
