Fragrant plant

[Wongkitlo]

Hi. I am hoping to plant something to help cover the smell of a drain. I read lavender does not grow well here. Any suggestions appreciated.

If it's a sunny area you could try lemongrass.

 

The pungent aroma of lemongrass often has a repelling effect on insects and bugs too.

Lemongrass may help, but something else to consider:  Use EM (effective microorganisms) in the drain water to suppress odors. The excellent proven product from Organic Totto is on the shelf at HomePro, not in gardening section but with home cleaning supplies. They also make EM balls for pond water clarity management.

What plant has the strongest scent?

 

 

Night Blooming Jasmine

The plant surely has the most powerful fragrance and what makes it different from the others is its nature to bloom at night, wafting the intoxicating aroma in the air.
