A practical guide to building a scented garden in any size space

Organized around 50 fragrant choices—from flowers and vines to herbs, shrubs and trees—this gardening reference centers scent as a way to shape outdoor spaces. It covers plants associated with aromas such as rose, lavender, orange blossom, daphne and mint, while accounting for different climates and growing situations, including balconies, courtyards, narrow passageways and larger gardens. Guidance on soil, feeding and climate gives the book a practical framework for selecting and maintaining plants, and photographs help introduce the featured varieties. The emphasis remains on matching scented plants to the conditions and scale of a particular space.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Gardeners planning a fragrance-focused planting scheme
  • Balcony and courtyard gardeners with limited space
  • Newer growers seeking plant-care guidance alongside selection ideas

This book brings together the top 50 fragrant plants to stimulate your senses. With information about soil needs, feeding and climate, and stunning, inspirational photos, this handy reference puts growing fragrant plants within reach of everyone, whatever your garden space and level of experience.
