If you don’t like the weather “Wait a minute” I was told when I first moved to Georgia; so it’s no big surprise that while last week was cold & rainy and even frosty some mornings, this week we are in the high 60’s.
I have no idea when the Fragrant Wintersweet (Chimonanthus praecox) started to bloom but here it is Dec 3rd.
Wonderfully fragrant, not overly sweet but a clean rather fresh scent, usually starting in mid to late November in my garden.(I usually look for it around Thanksgiving)

Don’t let another season go by without one. Promise you will love it.
Ours was blooming more than a week ago. The perfume led me to the bloom. One of my favorite fragrances.
Hope I described the fragrance acurately. What do you think?
I was led by the nose to our wintersweet more than a week ago.
I love these mild temps, but I do think it’s a mite confusing for some of our plants. One week of winter & now it’s spring!?
