Heaven Scent

Mar 5, 2010   //   by Sandra Friend   //   Travels  //  No Comments

A stroll through the ancient camellias of Magnolia Gardens wrapped us in transformative and tranquil aromas, where Mom and I marveled at the variety of color and form of these historic plants, draped over pathways in the tradition of a romantic garden. The camellia’s scent is fleeting; experience it now here in Charleston!
