5 plants that perfume the garden

Spring garden

You leave your house and go to the garden. As you get closer, you begin to perceive a pleasant aroma of flowers. Maybe summer, roses or, who knows, maybe that smell reminds you of that exquisite flavor that vanilla has. And the best thing is that you know that this is not a dream like any other, but that it is one that has come true ... or is in it. Yes, because a garden should not only stand out for its colors, but also for the aroma that some of their plants give off.

If you want to expand the list of these aromatic plants, or do not know which ones to put, we suggest five plants that perfume the garden.
