I believe many friends who love growing flowers enjoy keeping fragrant flowering potted plants, but with so many flower species, choosing the right ones to grow at home is not so easy. Today we will introduce several flowering plants that not only have rich floral fragrance, but their scent can also prevent and treat illnesses.
No. 7 Lily: Most lilies are fragrant, and the planting method for lilies is very simple. Just find a flower pot and bury the lily bulbs directly into the soil. Keep the soil moist and they will quickly sprout and grow.
No. 6 Jasmine: This is also a very common strongly fragrant plant. In our area, jasmine is often used to make tea, and the jasmine tea produced is very fresh and fragrant. Every summer, there are older women on the street specifically selling jasmine bracelets. You can put jasmine in the bedroom or hang it in the car, and the fragrance can last for several days.
No. 5 Osmanthus: With seemingly inconspicuous flowers, you would never imagine that such small flowers can give off such a rich, sweet fragrance, and it is especially good for people's health. Steeping osmanthus in tea has the effects of warming the middle and dispelling cold, warming the stomach and relieving pain, and resolving phlegm and dissipating blood stasis. It is often used to treat phlegm-fluid cough and asthma, intestinal wind and bloody dysentery, cold pain in the stomach and abdomen, toothache, bad breath, and other conditions. Flower lovers who like osmanthus can choose Dan Gui; its fragrance is even more pleasant than ordinary osmanthus, and it is suitable for balcony pot cultivation.
No. 4 Banana Shrub: "The flower blooms without opening its mouth, smiling with its head bowed; like a beauty smiling, deep feelings flow secretly." This is most fitting to describe the banana shrub. Its scent is rich and long-lasting yet not heavy or greasy, and it is used in some perfumes or skin creams. The fragrance has a slight fruity note and smells very good; every time I smell it, I want to take a bite.
No. 3 Orange Jessamine: Evergreen throughout the four seasons, with pure white and fragrant flowers, it is suitable for viewing all year round. Everyone who has grown orange jessamine praises it. In childhood, I was deeply enchanted by the orange jessamine along the fields and roadsides. Every year in mid-to-late April, I would gather orange jessamine petals together with my friends. Using it to scent clothes is simply a hundred times better than perfume.
No. 2 Milan Flower: It is one of the flowering plants people love very much. When it blooms, a fresh fragrance spreads all around, with a scent similar to orchid. Milan flower can remove harmful substances indoors such as sulfur dioxide, chlorine, ether, ethylene, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen peroxide, and it can release oxygen. Placing a pot of Milan flower at home can give you a comfortable and healthy living environment.
No. 1 Gold-edged Daphne: Gold-edged daphne is also called Qianli Xiang, because as long as you place a small one on the balcony, the whole house is filled with fragrance. Its place of origin is Jiangxi, and it is a small woody perennial aromatic plant. Placed indoors, it can play an excellent role in decorating the space. Although its plant is short, it is covered with flowers from a young age. This fragrance is different from osmanthus fragrance, and this fragrance can also be extracted into essential oil. Its leaves, flowers, bark, and roots can all be used as medicine. It has effects such as reducing inflammation and detoxifying, relieving pain, promoting blood circulation, and treating sore throat.
Of course, everyone may perceive fragrance differently, so the above ranking is for reference only. You can recommend to us the flowering plant you think is the most fragrant, so we can grow it together too.
