We all know that you're supposed to take time to stop and smell the roses, but what are your other favorite fragrant flowers?
I didn't grow up with a lot of flowers, but I thought one of the BEST scents EVER was honeysuckle. I think finding honeysuckle was as much of a treasure to me as Musketman's metal detector finds!
Later my parent planted some antique roses around their carport and WOW, they made walking out to the carport a real treat.
Lilacs, oh my word! One of our houses had a lilac bush planted right outside our living room window and it made opening the windows like aromatherapy or something.
And my husband was a Schwanns man for a few years so he would often come home and tell me about fragrant plants at his customers' homes. One of his favorites was Mock Orange. He really liked it.

And share your favorite fragrant plants here as well. Thinking of all of these gorgeous smelling flowers makes me wish we had a scratch n sniff feature!
