Fragrant plant?
I live in North Carolina. When in the mountains mostly and even in
the Piedmont, I often smell a very fragrant plant, but I cannot find it to identify it. Whatever it is, it is fragrant enough that I can smell it in my car when the nearest plant is two-hundred feet away. I first notice it in the spring, but it appears to persist even into late summer. I know that this is not much to go on, but I though that maybe someone here would have some experience with fragrant plants in the Carolinas. TIA - Pete Remove the "X" to send e-mail. |

TIA - Pete Pretty sure this isn't what you're looking for, but the fuschia 4 o'clocks around my house ENVELOP the entire area with their wonderful scent. I noticed that the mixed (fuschia & white) or just white ones don't have the heavenly scent of the fuschia. Makes sitting outside in the summer and my night-time slug hunting so much more pleasant! Just my 2 cents......... Christine |

Fragrant plant?
Some locust trees,especially the ones with thorny branches, put out
clusters of flowers (looking somthing like hanging grapes) that are very fragrant. We have two such wild trees on the front lawn in east Tennessee. Wild honey suckle is also very fragrant and the blooms continue for a few months. On Mon, 14 Apr 2003 00:20:53 GMT, Peter B. wrote: I live in North Carolina.

I don't know about down south but up here (NY) when the wild rose blooms its
scent carries. It would probably be blooming now down there, still several weeks away for us. -- Kristen Zone 6, SE NY "Peter B." wrote in message ... I live in North Carolina.
