Table of Contents: The Power of Scent

Coco Chanel believed that a woman who doesn't wear perfume has no future. We feel the same way about gardens.

Join us for a week of celebrating scent, as we track down a Parisian florist's favorite fragrant flowers, stylish rose arbors, and white jasmine to perfume a jet black garden.

Above: Michelle's next door neighbor Linda has a fragrant 'Pat Austin' rose you can smell over the fence. For more of Linda's garden, see Garden Visit: The Hobbit Land Next Door.

Monday

Above: We visit a jet black London townhouse garden perfumed by white jasmine in this week's Before & After post. Meanwhile, see 51 images of Dramatic Black And White Gardens in the Gardenista Gallery.

Tuesday

Above: Are you ready for roses? Now is the time to put in an order for spring, and we've rounded up ten of the most fragrant—and hardy—old roses, with a little help from our favorite Parisian florist, in this week's 10 Easy Pieces.

Wednesday

Above: We have step-by-step instructions for 11 fragrant DIY floral arrangements to fight the February blues in this week's Bouquet of the Week post. For more ideas, see Flowers from Miss Pickering.

Thursday

Above: We're fascinated by factory windows, so Janet is investigating the pros and cons (and prices) in this week's Hardscaping 101.

Friday

Above: Michelle finds 11 entryway arbors that add Curb Appeal (fragrant rose optional) in this week's Roundup post.

The Remodelista editors are starting their spring cleaning early with a week devoted to Clean Living. See what they're up to at Remodelista.
