About this title

From Booklist:

Lovejoy, prolific recorder of horticultural wisdom, now turns her attention to scented flora for the outdoor garden, offering consistently practical advice. Although specialty hybrids and cultivars are mentioned, Lovejoy pays homage to delightfully fragrant as well as readily available species plants. Recommendations include fruit trees, roses, shrubs and bulbs, and perennials and annuals of particular interest. A chapter devoted to diagrams and seasonal garden plans offers ideas for gardeners to consider, while resource lists emphasize the West Coast region, highlighting public gardens and nurseries where plants can be ordered. Alice Joyce

Review:

Gardening expert Lovejoy explores scented flowers and their cultivation, providing details on all the scented plants which may be grown to make a year-round garden. First-person descriptions of and familiarity with the plants makes for a gardening guide which is appealing and personal, as well as packed with horticultural detail. -- Midwest Book Review
