Thanks, I'll check it out.

At the risk of making you more envious, I also get seedlings from my maples popping up around the garden. I'm growing some in small pots, others I've given away. The one on the right is a randome maple seedling, the other is a sycamore.

This is my hemerocallis lilioasphodelus flowering today so the flowering overlaps with that of the philadelphus.
Regal lilies are very highly perfumed too and flower a bit later but lily beetles can be a problem.

I'd be interested in any recommendations for other highly scented plants.

My teddy. Over 60 years old and minus a nose and a mouth but still perfect to hug and strangely still has the same smell that I remember from my childhood.

Spent a week in Badachro, Wester Ross (near Gairloch) in September. Not the best weather but even so managed to get a few photos. This was the view from our rented property ........ I think we might just return next year.
