Default Scented plants

I'm planning to fill a bed just outside the back patio doors with
scented plants. It's south facing & about 5' x 10'. In height I'm
looking to a maximum of about 3', but mostly lower growing plants.

I'd like a mixture of shrub, perennial & some annuals & self-seeders.
Can anyone help me out, please, by adding to the list of possible
candidates:

pinks
lavender
nicotiana
evening primrose
night scented stock
lilies
???


Hi Judy,

Zaluzianskya capensis - Night Phlox

A hardy annual which opens up in the evening with a gorgeous scent -
still can't place it though :-)

Got to be my favourite scented plant.
