It’s a bit trickier to capture smell in a photograph. Some of these scents I’m sure you’ll know, others may not be as familiar. If you have a chance, let your nose wander by these olfactory lovelies at the right time of day. You’ll be glad you did.<\/p>\n

\"Autumn
Autumn Olive (Elaeagnus umbellata) <\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nThe blooms on this alien, which can be quite invasive, are not particularly showy, but the scent is powerful. I think early morning is the strongest, but late evening is also good.<\/p>\n

\"Dame's
Dame's Rocket (Hesperis matronalis)<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nTo me, Dame’s Rocket smells much like lilacs. Again, I think early morning is the strongest scent.<\/p>\n

\"Multiflora
Multiflora Rose (Rosa multiflora) <\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nTrust me, I know how much of a problem the invasive multiflora rose can be, but it wafts a lovely scent across the air in the morning.<\/p>\n

\"Old-Fashioned
Old-Fashioned Shrub Rose (Rosa) <\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nThis prolific producer smells great in my garden all day long – better on sunny days than rainy ones.<\/p>\n

\"Peony
Peony (Paeonia)<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nI like early and late in the day to catch my peonies’ aroma.<\/p>\n

\"Variegated
Variegated Honeysuckle Vine (Lonicera pericyclemenum Harlequin)<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nRelated to the invasive honeysuckle shrub, the vine looks like a different plant. And this variegated variety smells AMAZING in the early morning and late evening. In the middle of the day – nothing.<\/p>\n

\"Sweet
Sweet William (Dianthus barbatus)<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nTrue to its name, this garden lovely smells sweet most of the day.<\/p>\n

It’s your turn – what’s reviving YOUR sense of smell this spring?<\/strong><\/p>\n
