These plants will bring the mouth-watering scents of coffee, chocolate and even curry to your garden. Get ready to unleash the aroma!
1. Bignonia capreolata: smell the coffee
Commonly known as the crossvine, this plant is a native of the southeastern United States and grows pretty red trumpets with a small yellow sunburst. It has a surprising mocha, chocolate or coffee aroma.
2. Cosmos atrosanguineus: the sweet aroma of chocolate
Hailing from Mexico, this sweet-smelling flower blooms from June to October with a delicious chocolate smell. It starts off almost black before turning a deep purple-red. The so-called “chocolate cosmos” is a delightful little plant to try in a pot.
3. Helichrysum italicum: tasty, exotic curry

Also known as immortelle or curry plant, this shrub-like flora with gray evergreen foliage and yellow flowers smells just like curry. Its flowers could almost be mistaken for mimosa flowers, but immortelle grows in bushes, close to the ground, rather than on a tree.
4. Lemon verbena: a tangry citrus crush
This little-known perennial shrub is often used in herbal teas or potpourri. It gives off a deliciously delicate lemon smell and bears some resemblance to its cousin, lemon balm. Its leaves bring a subtle citrus scent to gardens and interiors.
