So, if you want a home that smells like heaven, keep reading for our recommended fragrant indoor plants.
Jasmine
Jasmine is one of the most popular fragrant indoor plants, together with lavender. Aside from its beautiful appearance, jasmine is easy to grow. Place it in a spot where it can get full sun, and don’t forget to water it at least once a week or when the soil is dry.
Lavender
Lavender is one of the top choices for bedroom plants because of its calming effect. It’s a low-maintenance plant, so it’s perfect for beginners. It appreciates full sun, but be careful when choosing a location for your lavender plant since it’s toxic to pets. Water only when the soil is dry.
Plumeria
Plumeria is one of our favorite fragrant indoor plants because of its Hawaiian vibe. Plumeria thrives under full, direct sunlight. Water only when the soil is dry, and feed it with houseplant fertilizer diluted to half-strength every two weeks during spring and summer.
Peppermint
One of the most common fragrant indoor plants that can easily be grown during summer and winter. Mints require lots of full sunlight or a grow light to thrive. Keep the soil moist at all times.
Paperwhites
Paperwhites are beautiful holiday plants. You must have seen it as a gorgeous centerpiece last Christmas dinner. Paperwhites need bright, direct sun indoors, and keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy.
Scented Geranium
If you want a gentle, earthy scent, then we suggest adding geraniums into your home. It comes in different colors and scents. It’s best to place it on a windowsill where it can get direct, full sun. Geraniums are known to be extremely drought-tolerant, so be careful not to overwater.
Gardenia
Unlike jasmine and lavender, gardenia can be a bit high maintenance, but its beautiful full, snow-white blooms are definitely worth the extra TLC. It loves direct sunlight and humid environment, so it’s best to mist it regularly or place it on a pebble tray. Keep the soil moist, but don’t overwater.
Hoya
Also known as wax plant because of its shiny green leaves. Hoya plants, when given proper care, can bloom colorful, fragrant flowers. To make your hoya plant bloom, give it lots of bright indirect light and increase the humidity of your space. It also requires half-strength houseplant fertilizer once a month and water only when the soil is dry.
Lemon Balm
Lemon balm, from the name itself, smells like lemon with a hint of mint. I love rubbing this on my skin because of its built-in bug repellent. Lemon balm requires at least five hours of sunlight and regular watering, but don’t let its soil get soggy.
Citrus
Of course, citrus is one of the best fragrant indoor plants. Dwarf citrus trees like calamansi are one of the trending indoor plants. Citrus trees require at least eight hours of full sunlight and water only when the soil is dry.
