Fragrant Spring-Flowering Bulbs
Fragrance can add a whole new dimension to the
spring garden. By planting some fragrant plants this autumn you can create a
peaceful, secluded scented garden spot for relaxation, a wonderfully fragrant
walkway, or create vibrant and sweetly-scented beds and borders to great you in
the spring.
Fill your spring garden with colour and fragrance with these beautifully scented bulbs.
