Portlandia Grandiflora...not only is it beautiful, it smells like Hot sweet Chocolate and Vanilla...I want to eat it! It is the Queen of my garden right now!
White Flower Photos, post one here
Plumeria Pudica - It has a slight scent, but not like regular Plumeria. But what you give up for scent, you make up with constant blooms...planted this one with Bloodleaf and Gaura.
By the way! I'm in total AWE over everybodies white flower photo's! They're beautiful!
Don't mean to take up space...but right now as I look back at all the gorgeous photo's I'm having extreme Zone-envy!
Nice thread Dale...Thank-you!
Thanks Lucy and dstartz :-)
KatG and JanetS - wonderful photos :-) KatG - looks like you have some very nice one's flowering down there in FL! Love seeing what grows there :-)
Lilium 'Navona' and white lupine.
I know we already have Iceberg rose, but I love it's little buds before they open all the way.
I love all of this white...that is one thing I MUST have in my garden! White flowers! I tuck it in anywhere I can...lol

Strawberry Begonia - Saxifraga stolonifera 'Maroon Beauty'
BUT THE FLOWER IS WHITE!!
Some annuals don't seem to understand that they aren't supposed to last for years in this zone. So I'm gonna put in a perennial for me -
Lobularia maritima - Alyssum
This thread is just wonderful. Thanks for all these beautiful whites.
Now showing in the south ~ open tonight!
Hedychium ~ ginger lily
Ruellia ~ the white is not invasive here.
Not showy but delightful... Saponaria ~ soapwort with a delicate tinge of pink.
Potemup...I have a stand of Alyssum that bloomed all Winter here for me...I think I have a perfect micro- climate in that particular area...I have cone flowers bloom there all Winter at times, as well as Petunias...lol What a crazy zone..huh! Love the whites everyone!!!
So many beautiful white flowers. Thanks very much to you all for posting them for all our enjoyment. Thought I'd pop in with my own Lilium speciosum album (also a little white euphorbia in the background), which in its first year in the garden has been a big star.
a spot in the white garden. none are spectacular on their own, but it's a sweet combo

Absolutely gorgeous photo's everybody! I just cannot believe how many beautiful white flower there are...With all these suggestions, this might call for a moonlight garden next season. Thank-you all.
How about some white Angelonia?
Or some Ribbon Plant (I think that's what it's called) planted with white Crown of Thorns...
Variegated Stephanotis (It's just starting to bloom and smells heavenly!)
Here's another Stephanotis that I just brought outside...
Kat,
All your flowers look so happy and healthy.
I can almost smell them from here!
I have been growing my Crown of Thorns for over 2 years and they still don't look like that *lol*
So hard to get that humidity here in Maine during the winter :(
