description All gardens can stimulate the senses. Some gardens stimulate the senses to a greater degree than others. In sensory gardens, plants and other design elements are selected with intention to provide experiences for seeing, smelling, hearing, touching, and tasting.

A third approach is a blend that enlivens all of the senses throughout the garden.  This document is ENH981, one of a series of the Environmental Horticulture Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.
