Bring The Smell Of Nature Into Your Home

2/8/2020

A lot of money is spent on this to reproduce fragrances for perfumes and air fresheners. The majority of these manufactured fragrances have alcohol and other additives that can irritate the membranes in your nose. Nature has done it the best and these are some of the most heavenly fragrances you’ll ever smell.
1) Hyacinth! This highly fragrant flower is a member of the lily family. Lillies tend to grow much larger than the hyacinth but if you look closely at this flower you will see that the clusters of these blooms are tubular in shape just like the lily. Hyacinths have been a popular garden flower since the 17 hundreds because of the brilliance of their color (of every shade) and because of the incredible fragrance they have.

Whether you have them planted outdoors or in a pot in your home, this beautiful flower will brighten up any space and give off a constant heavenly fragrance, but it is not overpowering. We just can’t imagine a perfume that smells any better than this. And men, instead of giving her some fresh cut flowers, try giving her a hyacinth plant. It will last longer and she can replant it again next year if she wants to put it in a garden.
​2) The most fragrant flowers are the pure white Casa Blanca and the dark pink Stargazer lily. They are absolutely beautiful, but beware; the fragrance they give off is so strong, that, one bouquet of lilies can fill up an entire room. Don’t place them where you are going to sit for any length of time unless, that is what you want.

They don't do well in direct sunlight or drafts so place them in a more diffused lit area. ​If you replace the water every couple of days and add flower food plus a new snip of the ends, you’ll have a long lasting, beautiful fragrant arrangement. ​
3) Tuber roses are not roses. Like the hyacinth, a tuber rose has a stem with clusters of flowers that are all white. Once again, the smell is fantastic. We once picked off one little petal from the cluster and placed it in a client's car. A few hours later when returning to the vehicle she was pleasantly surprised at how wonderful it smelled. Her children noticed it as well. It was the perfect natural air freshener.

​4) Gardenias! These flowers that bloom on trees have a very short life after they are cut, but for the little time you have them in your home it is worth it. Generally gardenias are made into a corsage for special occasions, but if you don’t want to do that, you can place the flower in a low dish of water and then just leave them alone to do their work.

5) There are some roses that have been bred for their fragrance such as the peach colored Oceana rose or the Sterling Silver rose (which is purple). Each of these have a light perfume to them. All of the purple roses have a wonderful smell.

You can order any of these flowers from Bristol Gardening. If they don’t have them on hand you can ask them to order some for you. In most cases, if you place an order before noon, you should be able to pick them up later in the afternoon. 

Rather than putting chemicals in the air, you may want to get some flowers now and again and enjoy nature’s perfume. Enjoy!
