Flowers at home.

No matter how clean I keep work, there is still a slight doggy smell. I love to keep flowers that have a scent in waiting room, the stronger the better.

O.K. the strong floral smell is better than WET DOG

Murraya- one of the best plants for your home. It blooms almost all year round. Strong fragrance.
Its berries are edible and useful.

I have to look that up. LOL I have them in garden here called Mock orange. Mine are very old and have no fragrance.

 

[Nyboy]

What do you use the berries for?

 

[Larisa]

The berries are used for hypertension, heart diseases, as a tonic, reduces blood sugar.

 

[Nyboy]

Good to know I always leave for the birds.

Our mock orange shrubs are not the same as the "Murraya paniculata" or "orange jasmine" shrub.

Larisa, I love the scent of jasmine! The mock orange shrubs Nyboy discussed are in the "Philadelphus" family. They, too, have a fragrance -- rather like oranges. I have one variegated leaf, two single flowered, and one double flowered shrubs.

Unlike your Murraya, the scent doesn't waft through the air to enjoy. I must stick my nose right into the flower to smell citrus.

This is not my favorite photo of the mock orange shrubs. My first shrub looks like it's covered in snow when in full bloom.

Thanks Red was going to start eating the berries. Do want to learn more about larisa plant the berries sound pretty good

 

[Larisa]

Yes, murayya is another plant, not jasmine. Jasmine I also grow in the garden. If you have to sell the plant or seeds planted in the house - I recommend . You will not regret! Berries are useful.
