Wondering which sweet peas to pick for the perfect perfume? Just ask Monty Don

Although the flowers are beautiful, and can keep on being so into autumn, it’s the scent of sweet peas I love most. It has unfathomable depths of gentle sensuousness, and is one of those delicate yet persuasive garden fragrances that’s more enticing and seductive than any man-made perfume. Unfortunately, the choice of fragrant sweet peas is more limited than the scores of visually sumptuous varieties that are all but scent-free, which is a result of the obsessive breeding and showing of sweet peas in the last 100 years. Monty Don reveals the scent of sweet peas is better than any man-made perfume. Pictured: A wigwam of fragrant ‘Matucana’ sweet peas

Plants with plum-coloured leaves may need more pampering

Monty revisits one of his classic books, Gardening at Longmeadow, in an occasional series. Purple leaves, which are coming into their full glory now, will make red and yellow flowers seem more intense, and add more depth to a border than any green can, so they are particularly suitable for the Jewel Garden. I was first struck by how effective purple foliage can be in the garden of Kiftsgate Court near Chipping Campden in Gloucestershire. The way that purple hazels were coppiced there influenced me dramatically. Monty Don shared his advice for adding depth to borders with purple-leaved plants, as he reveals they need more pampering than green-leaved ones. Pictured: An arch of Corylus maxima ‘Purpurea’
