Scented Sunday
This entry was posted in Country Gardening, My Photos and tagged Jasmine, Jasminum Polyanthum, macro photography, scented plants, Silent Sunday. Bookmark the permalink.
So beautiful! I can smell them! 🌸 😊🌟
Thank you!
I love the scent of jasmine in the garden, especially at night.
I can only dream of such as they are not hardy here, but this little pot is doing a good job in my sunspace. 🙂
Those are so pretty!
Thank you, glad you like them!
Thanks for this moment of summer sweetness, Eliza.
Thank you, Jet. Trader Joe’s comes through again! 😉
The scent of jasmine is so evocative of childhood Spring evenings for me – lovely image!
Thank you, those must be fond memories!
I’m SO impressed that you get jasmine to bloom indoors!
I cannot take full credit as this just arrived, all budded up. Let’s see if I can keep this one alive. 😉
A touch of Spring in the air? 🙂
Yes, the signs point to it. 🙂 Jasmines, like gardenias, aren’t hardy here, but are sold as potted plants. I was lucky to get the last one in the store!
Mmmm I can smell the jasmine 🙂
That delicate scent is such a delight! 🙂
Yes! For many years I was planning to name a girl, if I ever got one Jasmine.
Beautiful
Thank you, Eliza!
Beautiful and smells really good
So true, thanks, Athira!
Very beautiful.
Thank you!
Beautiful images, Eliza. I really must have some jasmine in my garden this year!
Thank you, Anita. I wish I could grow it outside, but it is not hardy here. I’m fortunate to have one for the sunspace – a delight!
Pretty and delicate:)
Thank you, Karina!
Mmmm. I can almost smell it. I love the scent of jasmine. Beautiful images, Eliza. ❤
Thank you, Robin. It is a delight to own one of these – the scent is marvelous!
Delicate and dramatic all rolled into one. 🙂
Thank you, Judy. I expect there must be jasmine flowering all around you right now. 🙂
Reblogged this on Blue Dragon Journal and commented:
Such a little innocent white flower; such a huge magnificent fragrance!
Thank you for reblogging, Eliza. It’s scent is quite lovely indeed!
I wish I could smell that! I love the middle shot with sun & shadows so contrasting.
Thank you, I need a scratch-n-sniff app! 😉
Now I know Jasmine doesn’t grow in my garden so I know it doesn’t in yours either. But the sight of this flower has my heart just sighing. Happy Sunday, Eliza!! xo
Thank you, Amy. As winter/spring bloomers, they can sometimes be found for sale this time of year. Like gardenias, they have a lovely scent. ❤
I had a Jasmine plant once and when it bloomed the fragrance filled the entire house. NICE!!
🙂
Lovely compositions and lighting, Eliza, especially the first capture!
Thank you, Donna!
Jasmine is so intoxicating. In the 2 nd photo, one of the blooms has only 4 petals & to it’s left there’s a 6 petal bloom…does that vary on the plant?
Yes, variation occurs on the same plant, though 5 petals seems to be the most common.
Reblogged this on Purplerays.
Thank you for reblogging!
Very Nice Eliza! Enjoyed seeing them!
Thanks, Reed!
Little beauties! That top photo is especially fine.
Thank you very much, Laurie! Good things do come in small packages. 🙂
It looks lovely. There are winter blooming jasmine in the landscape where I work and their scent gets sucked in through the air intake!
Oh, my, that sounds wonderful – aromatherapy at work, how perfect is that? 🙂
Beautiful macros Eliza and I love the smell of Jasmine, so lovely to see them bloom in Winter! xxx
Thank you, Xenia!
A beautiful respite from the snow we are getting here today! But, it’s off to Florida to visit family tomorrow … bet I’ll see some flowers and be able to smell them too! 🙂
Ooh, lucky you, I expect you’ll find lots of jasmine in bloom down there. I remember smelling and then seeing a whole hedge of it once – pure heaven! Have a great trip!
Thanks … not bringing my camera this time. I’d want to bring a tripod if I did and only bringing a carry-on. The family doesn’t really like it when I spend much time photographing anyway!
‘Practicing presence’ 🙂
Jasmine – ambrosia for the senses. 🙂
Absolutely! 🙂
Few things smell better!
True! 🙂
Spring is approaching, lovely!
Thank you, Belinda. It does feel like spring today with temps at 50F degrees!
It’s mild here too. 😊
Jasmine has such a lovely scent. I see that you purchased this at Trader Joe’s. I’ve been buying flowers there for a while. Good prices and usually generous with the bunches. I have no idea whether their suppliers use Neonicotinoids like some of the other places. Probably not an issue for indoor plants.
Good point and important to think about. This one was sourced from Canada, so don’t expect they’d need neonocs, which tend to be used on outdoor perennials. I like that TJs buys Rainforest Alliance certified flowers.
Oh my goodness that must be just heavenly!!! ❤ I adore Jasmine but my sister is allergic to the fragrance so I can't have it.
How sad, it is too bad about your sister, but it is what it is. At least, she isn’t allergic to cats and dogs. 😉
Scent-sational!
Haha, yes it is, thanks, Fi!
Lovely photos and reminder that flower season will be arriving soon!🙂
Yes, spring feels not too far off. Thanks, S!
What a gift from nature is that heady scent of jasmine. Wish it could be transported through the ether 😊
The most heavenliest of flower scent I’ve come across is a Namaqua Gethylis koekamakranka – it has a non-descript flower but the scent is exquisite. Nature has so many wonderful aspects.
I had to look that one up, it sounds intriguing!
Beautiful!
Gracias!
Lovely photos Eliza, and your sunspace sounds to be most delightful and the potted flowering plants on the cusp of spring seem to think so too!
Thank you, Carol. That sunspace gets me through the winter, my little indoor garden!
