What would be the most fragrant plants for zone 8B? I have an area that is a bit smelly from my pets going potty. I thought some fragrant landscape plants (nonpoisonous of course) would help cover up the offensive odor. clap

How about Gardenia, Sweet Olive, Magnolia fascota (spelling?) or even lantana. Cape jasmine is really good if you have a trellis, fence, etc.

Rosemary bushes and mint if you don't mind it spreading.

Awesome, thanks. I will certainly try those plants. What is Odokill and where can I buy or order it. I feel terrible thinking my poor neighbors have to smell my back yard! My dogs have killed all of the grass (centipede). I am trying to plant new (supposedly urine resistent). I am hoping that the grass, once grown, will help, but right now our backyard is all but unusable! boohoo
