Book Recommendation: "A Garden of Fragrance" by Suzy Bales

A listener missed the title of a fragrant plant book mentioned on a radio show. The book is A Garden of Fragrance by Suzy Bales. It's praised as an excellent reference that categorizes plants by scent type—vanilla, cinnamon, citrus, etc. The expert plans to order a copy personally.

Also discussed was wintersweet (Chimonanthus praecox), a fragrant winter-blooming shrub available at many nurseries. Calling ahead is advised to confirm stock.

This book is a treasure for gardeners who want to design landscapes that delight the nose as much as the eyes.
