Hello all. While I am crazy about irises, the reason I first started growing bearded irises was for the scent. I absolutely love the smell of bearded iris. And yes, they ALL have a scent, even though most aren't labeled as fragrant. Been addicted to smelling irises since I was very little and my Dad grew them. So sad they bloom for just a month or so a year!
Jasmine and honeysuckle on the night air are also divine.
