Hi Joan i love all flowers and trees, but some of the favourites would have to be freesia, sweetpeas, lavender i have a butterfly one, the cottage garden flowers, roses, peonies, delicate gyposophelia , honeysuckle and jasmine, and carnations. the different scents at different times of the day make you feel wonderful and alive. i also love the smells from my herbs, i bought a chocolate mint last year to add to my others. sandra

Roses so far seem very popular. I bought a lovely new one last year to celebrate the birth of my first grandchild. It's called Rapsody in Blue. This year it has gone berserk with loads of mauve blooms on it. I'd recommend it as it has such a lovely strong smell as well. I've always loved Lily of the Valley I think because it was my Nan's favourite as well. When I got married many years ago now, I had a whole bouquet of them with a few pink rosebuds in between. Even when I smell them today it whisks me straight back to that day. Have a nice day, Jo.

Hi Joan My fav plants are freesias, closely followed by the good old fashioned Rose - the ones with the heady scent. Last year went to Germany on hols, and visited the Isle of Mainau. A island full of all types of flowers. They had great displays brilliant. Liz
