Christmas Wreath – Round Two: Ligustrum

The Jasmine wreath lasted less than 12-hours.  Hopefully the Ligustrum will have a longer run.  With the addition of fake Holly berries, this wreath has a more traditional feel.  But the smell is completely the opposite.  In candle terms, trade pine for fresh linen.  There were only two blooms between the two bushes because the Ligustrum normally blooms around May, but those tiny buds pack a punch. 

The smell is clean and fresh as soon as you approach the door.  If it keeps, it’ll work out well when I’m feeling lazy throughout the holidays.  The first impression scent of Ligustrum will trigger tidy thoughts and visitors will just naturally assume I cleaned the house…just don’t look down at the dog.
