I've decided my potato vine is fragrant. I still can't smell anything close to the flower but that marshmallow scent only appears when this starts blooming. It's light and elusive. I love how the buds and flowers emerge in a fractal.

It's really starting to fill in this year!

My Kaffir lime with it's delightfully scented leaves.

This is somehow blooming despite it's steady decline.

And my pink Jasmine is still putting out the odd cluster of blooms.

I can't wait to see what you guys have blooming.

Those roses look beautiful! I am always scared to plant them because of the bugs it attracts. Ofcourse the biggest threat is japanese beetle.

Cestrum parqui in full bloom!

Such nice specimens, everyone! The only new thing for June so far is my Lilium washingtonianum. Grown from seed from Mt Hood.

sweet pontica azalea although i was a bit late on taking the photo

Another fragrant azalea Soirde Paris

My first Magnolia Daybreak nice perfume but was not amazed by it

beautiful scented lilac

lilac little miss kim

CHOISYA ternata

Mexican orange blossom

and last my hawthorn bonsai

First bloom of the year on Hemerocallis 'Hyperion'. I love its sweet light scent.

Luckily black spot and Japanese beetles aren't a thing here. We have other rose issues lol.

Here's what most of those buds look like today.

My cactus bloomed. Lovely intense fragrance at night. Bubblegum Jasmine?

Sadly only lasts for a day or two.

My... Duranta? I think that's what it's called.

Sweet vanilla type fragrance.

Hopefully I'll have roses open soon that are used to the heat.

Haemanthus humilis finally opened. Very fresh scent.

Belle of india's first bloom!

Heliotrope marine

Yesterday today and tomorrow bud!

Belle of India is probably my favorite jasmine. :)

Lilium 'Satisfaction' is starting to open. Love its scent.

Robert, beautiful work as always...I'm amazed to see that we have the same plants mostly and yet yours are always ahead of mines! At least by a month! My Lilies are just showing small green buds..Crazy Do you ever have to keep those little red beetle off of them?

I wish I lived further south, let me tell you. Now I am about to receive temps down into the forties for the next three days when we should be basking in very warm summer temps..It makes no sense and is very frustrating...

Lilium regale is just starting.

Brunfelsia..love the fragrance! Almost a little like jasmine tortuosum.

Queen Elizabeth rose in full bloom

Nemesis hybrid with its lemony scent

My night blooming water lily opened! Texas Shell Pink.

It's so big! I didn't realise how small my Dauben really is until the bloom opened.

I wouldn't call the fragrance cinnamon, nor pungent. I find it really pleasant. Sweet, but almost medicinal.

Like candied anise, or a really sweet rootbeer.

Here you can see the size difference between my Dauben's leaves and my Texas Shell Pink.

My Dwarf Sag bloomed. I took a sniff. Smells like daisies. Not my favourite.

Cute though. You can see a second bud on Texas Shell Pink.

My Water Poppy bloomed. Not fragrant but cute.

Mike, sorry it's been cold up there. I'm sure it will be too hot soon enough. :)

The main pest beetles I have to deal with are the spotted cucumber beetles who love to eat my flowers, especially my brug blooms. :(

hey guys! I've been away a week so I came home to a plague as usual but there was a nice surprise at least! I present to you my ..gulliver's honeysuckle!!:

Lonicera hildebrandiana actually. The scent is similar to ordinary japanese honeysuckle but lighter.

That's a gorgeous jasmine Robert! If you don't mind my asking can you let me know where you bought this cultivar from.

What? There is a Double Belle of India?? Where did you get it? :)))

Haha. I thought my Jasminum sambac variety from India that I bought off eBay from Bunti might get some people excited. ;)

Lol Robert excited is a really mild word :) My mom has the same variety in India. Next time I probably will try to get a cutting from India.

Orange peel jasmine. What a gorgeous color! Just looking at it makes me smile..ofcourse the citrus smell is just an icing.

Maid of orleans

Two different sweet pea plants with lavender shade flowers.

Mali pikul

My Panama Pacific water lily bloomed today. The scent was light and the bloom small but at least I don't have to worry about watering it when I go out of town. :)

Best months of the year June and July some real beauties from every one

A few from me in June

My old Favourite Magnolia x wieseneri i had one day with the flowers then it rained for 4 days and the flowers were left brown :(

First michelia Alba bloom of the year

My four!! :P Michelia figos are flowering

gardenia jasminoides

Calycanthus Athens wonderful fragrance a bit like Michelia figo but more apples and pears

Lavender colored Polianthes tuberosa

My second clematis i have ever grown is clematis montana wilsonii chocolate fragrance

The Aglaia odorata (Chinese Perfume Plant) is in full bloom. The arbor smells amazing in all the heat we're having).

Gorgeous plants everyone.

And so many varieties of sambac Jasmine you guys have! I'm quite jealous.

That Panama Pacific is gorgeous.

I forgot to update you guys on my first night blooming water lily flower.

The second night it looked like this. I don't know why.

Then the petals went back up the next night. And it slowly turned more pink.

Then the flower lasted 6 days. Which blew my mind. My Dauben lasts for 3, maybe 4 days.

Here's a pond shot.

Do any of you remember that lotus seed I sprouted from one of those florist pods? It's got lots of roots, 2 leaves, and two more on the way.

My sambac is finally starting to bloom.

My Mystery gardenia is blooming. I forgot to take a picture of the open bloom before I took it inside.

And this little guy was on sale for $5 so I picked him up.

My stephanotis is starting to open.

Orange jasmine started blooming..

My Chinese perfume plant is a very small plant which I bought in winter.

Grand duke supreme

Just had to share this pic on my zinnia

With summer here I can finally start having floating bowls around the house again!

Smells amazing!

Grand duke supreme is putting on an amazing should!

My jasmine are budding, cant wait for them to bloom, meanwhile, here are some.

Hello everyone, I'm so enjoying your june pics..

My fragrant brunfelsia australis is flowering now.

Hi Jasminegal, I think you are also in viriginia. I am in ashburn,VA are you close by to ashburn?

Hi Kandhi..I am in herndon. So we are right next to each other :)

how do I reach you as I cannot email to you through gardenweb?

I have updated my settings now Kandhi. I think you can reach me now. If not let me know.

The lily flowers are lasting about 3 or 4 days now.

Somehow them not lasting as long as the first makes me feel better.

From this morning.

Both are open at the same time for an hour each morning before the night blooming one closes.

I honestly don't remember which gardenia this is... Chuck Hayes maybe.

Looks a lot like chuck Hayes to me, tho mine died... Too cold and wet maybe. Frostproof does way better in Portland than any of the others.

My dianthus noeanus petraeus has started. It's wafting across the deck and is lovely.

Arabian nights jasmine

@ctgarde(5a) : In the abouve post, the first two pictures are not jasmine, They are magnolia x alba or white champaca.
