This is about life in my gardens. One is an acre on a hillside in Laguna Beach, California and the other is an acre in San Juan Capistrano, California.

So Fragrant
The blooms on this pittosporum tree are just as fragrant as citrus blooms! It fills the air with a lovely sent for weeks this time of year.
NellJean, I think they may be. My garden is fenced so the deer don't come in, but I know there are a lot out side the garden where the deer eat everything!
Somebody needs to invent smell-o-vision for garden blogs. I want to smell this lovely fragrance! And citrus blossoms too, as I'm a northerner, and have never had the pleasure.

Fragrant plants are always on my list. Is pittosporum deer resistant?
Dear Sheila, An absolutely lovely shrub but sadly not always hardy in the UK. Cut sprigs in a vase indoors would be heavenly.
Hi Sheila! I love both, the blooms and the leaves!

Love the sweet smell of the spring!
The bees love my pitosporum.
