29 Fragrant Vines

|
There's nothing better than plants with multiple desirable attributes. We grow vines for vertical beauty in the garden and in containers but many of them can also offer fragrance. Below we highlight 29 different vines - including some Clematis! - that will add beautiful scents to your garden. You can then, if you so desire, place a pre-order in the Clematis Conundrum for your favourite vines.
And if Clematis is your favourite vine, we also highlight how you can order Clematis twice each year for pick-up or shipping from the Pre-Order and the Main Catalogue. These cultivars are available at different times so please place separate orders.
If you can't visit in person, we have the Main Mail Order Catalogue which has recently launched. Peruse 1000 different plants cued up for your 2024 gardening season.
As if that wasn't enough, you can also shop from our 6 currently running Pre-Orders. Here is our full list:
The Summer Bulb and Bare Root Pre-Order
The Succulent Situation Pre-Order
The Hydrangea Hysteria Pre-Order
The Grafted Veggie Pre-Order
The Great Citrus and Rare Fruit Pre-Order

29 Fragrant Vines
Go Vertical and Add Fragrance
When we think of vines for the garden we often think first about Clematis and all the beauty their large colourful flowers can provide. Since this is not a genus we usually associate with fragrance, I find that many gardeners don't think about vines as a means to add gorgeous fragrance to their gardens. But there are many amazing vines that can add scent to your garden including some Clematis! You also have Akebia, jasmine, star jasmine, and honeysuckle.
Here's a selection of fragrant vines available now in the Clematis Conundrum Pre-Order. The vines will be arriving soon so get your orders in for pick-up or shipping!

After all, you already put up with long winters, frigid temperatures, and snow, snow, snow. During your spring, summer, and fall you should enjoy the best that the gardening world has to offer.
Here are some highlights from the 200 different summer-blooming bulbs and bare root available now for pre-order for spring pick-up or shipping:

Hydrangea Hysteria
Pre-Order
You'll Go Crazy for these 115 Top Cultivars
Hysteria (noun): 1. A wild uncontrollable emotion or excitement exhibited in gardeners when a state of plant lust becomes uncontrollable. 2. a functional disturbance of the nervous system, of psychoneurotic origin, caused by the presentation of too many amazingly beautiful things, for example the Hydrangea Hysteria Pre-Order at Phoenix Perennials.
This year we've really gone crazier than ever with 115 different cultivars. We hope you are excited by these Hydrangea. There are so many great old favourites and so much amazing breeding work pumping out new cultivars all the time. The past 10-15 years have seen an incredible number of distinctive and unusual Hydrangea introductions with innovations like the ability to bloom/rebloom on new wood, dwarf habits, and new flower forms & colours. In this pre-order we assemble a specially curated selection of the best that the Hydrangea world has to offer including many hot new introductions as well as some tried and true classic performers.

The Camellia Caramba Pre-Order Launched!
33 exquisite cultivars for 2024
Update April 3rd: This pre-order is now closed. Extra plants are now available for in-person shopping at the nursery.
Welcome to the second year of the Camellia pre-order celebrating this wonderful fall-, winter-, and spring-blooming evergreen shrub or tree. Camellias have long inspired gardeners with their exquisite and varied single, semi-double, and double flowers in shades of white, pink, coral, red, and yellow plus bicolours. The sasanqua types begin to bloom in the fall and continue through winter with delicate, fragrant flowers. The larger-flowered japonica types begin to bloom in late winter and early spring. Some hybrids bloom in the middle of winter. They are an amazing group of woody plants to keep colour going in the garden or on the patio when few other plants are blooming - except perhaps hellebores which make a great underplanting! While most Camellia are hardy to just zones 7 and 8, a few are hardy into zone 6. In colder zones they can be grown in a cool greenhouse or sunroom protected from freezing. Have fun!
|  | These are some of the beautiful Camellia available now for pre-order. |
