Herbs - aromatic herbs
Flowers have fragrances and many plants have foliage that emit scent if the leaves are crushed. An effective aromatic herb garden needs some forethought. The scent of a curry plant^ can overwhelm all else. Consider segregating plants with strong odours that are not in harmony with delicate vanilla and honey fragrances for example.
