3. Jasmine
Jasmine is the plant equivalent of a love song in the air. Known for its powerful, heady scent, jasmine vines are as beautiful as they are bold. With delicate white or pale yellow star-shaped flowers, the plant winds its way up trellises, fences, or pergolas, adding height and romance to the landscape. Some types, like star jasmine or Arabian jasmine, bloom in waves throughout the warm months. The fragrance is strongest at night, which makes them ideal companions for patios or nighttime gardens. In some cultures, jasmine is considered sacred and symbolizes sensuality, purity, and good luck. And yes, you can even harvest the flowers to scent tea.
