I was just looking up bluebells in Wikipedia, and I think they are absolutely lovely. However, they are not common here in California…or at least not my part of it. Can anyone tell me what bluebells might smell like? Are they similar to freesia, or are they completely unique.
I would greatly like to know.

You can’t smell them right now, but at least you can see them:
