Orchid

Natural fragrance, comes from aromaticplantsthe scent they release, generally through flowers, though there is also woody fragrance. Fragrance is released by secreting a liquid.

Such as camphor trees, nanmu.

Some also release fragrance through their leaves.

For example, mugwort, and fragrant wood.

Build yourself a small orchid room

Every plant has its own unique scent, and we love aromatic plants.

It is because fragrance can relieve our fatigue and ease tension. It can also heal various chronic physical and mental illnesses.

Floral fragrances range from strong to faint, from sweet to delicate.

Usually the delicate fragrance is pervasive and far-reaching. For example, the fragrance of orchids and osmanthus. They belong to the king of fragrances.

Variegated Daphne

Some plant fragrances need low temperatures to be released, such as wintersweet and variegated daphne.

Most floral fragrances are released quickly when the temperature is high.

Osmanthus

Among aromatic plants, osmanthus fragrance is the hardest to collect.

Orchid

Orchid fragrance comes in bursts, always released unexpectedly. When you want to smell it, it seems to play hide-and-seek with you, hiding its fragrance away.

Do you know why?

Orchids and osmanthus are highly spiritual fragrant plants. They always communicate with people through fragrance, to show their presence.

Many experienced orchid growers should deeply understand this.

Jasmine

Among these aromatic plants, only night-blooming jessamine cannot be kept directly with people. The fragrance it releases can bewilder the nerves, often causing people to hallucinate. At night, night-blooming jessamine should not be placed in the bedroom.

Gardenia

Some people say that gardenia fragrance is bold and unrestrained. It seems straightforward and not subtle.

No wonder people are used to planting gardenias along roadsides, or under large trees in courtyards. As long as someone passes by, once it blooms, they can follow the scent and find it.

Aglaia

The fragrance of aglaia is similar to orchid fragrance, a subtle, intermittent scent.

Wintersweet

The fragrance of wintersweet is too cold and aloof, and you would imagine it as a proud woman of noble character.

Night-blooming jessamine

Orange jasmine

Orange jasmine is not cold-tolerant and belongs to southern plants. Its fragrance is very diffuse, and you can never quite grasp its character.

Lavender

Lavender fragrance, personally I am somewhat unaccustomed to its scent.

Rosemary

Rosemary is also not quite suitable for me personally. Probably because it is an introduced species.

However, every aromatic plant's fragrance has its own character, and we should not deny the value its scent brings to humanity just because of personal preference.

The fragrances of these plants can all heal various human illnesses.

When you have time, you can grow some yourself.
