Bonsai, absolutely outstanding that passiflora! I have never seen fruit from that plant. How do they taste? I have thought of growing that plant. Does it have any fragrance? I love the color. Where do you grow that? Great job along with the citrus too. Boy, you are keeping busy. Thanks for being the first to post such wonders)))

I will show a few pictures when I get a chance)

Mike, thanks, I'm rather excited about the passiflora. They have a loose inner flesh and crunchy black seeds that have a really good sweet and sour flavor. I'd kind of describe it as a sour mix of pineapple and mango. The flowers do have a fragrance, but very hard to describe, and it doesn't seem to stop flowering. It does want to stay more moist than my other plants. I'm growing it in the same soil I use for my citrus, in the same west/southwest window and it grows like a weed. They grow a lot more like grapes than I thought, but are definitely worth it for the huge showy blooms.

Bonsai, just might try one. I know Logee's sells those. I almost picked one up this last spring)

Here are a few of mine...This site will only let me post a couple at a time. Ugh
Mock Orange from Logees' Very fragrant. Waffs for quite a distance with just a couple blossoms.

Twinkle orchid, smells like vanilla and fresh flower scent together. Hard to describe but breath taking.

Dendrobian King something

Zygpetulum

Meyermike, i I have a zygopetalum, and absolutely LOVE that aroma. Mine has another flower stalk coming up, but isn’t in bloom yet. Hoping it comes up in the next month!

Mike, that twinkle orchid is gorgeous! As is that rose. Your flowers are always so beautiful, and I bet they smell incredible.

Bob, I agree. The fragrance of a zygopetalum really can't be beat.

Good growing, Mike!

I'm curious how happy you are with the Logee's orchids. My daughter lives in Ct. and I have ordered dirt plants from there as gifts to her and they seem good quality. I get their catalog here in Florida and have been tempted to order one of their orchids but haven't.

Trying to get her or my granddaughters hooked on orchids!

These phlox are in full bloom now and scent the entire yard:

Just in case you can't smell it yet, here's more:

And this Clematis virginiana volunteered last year and is now taking over my gardens. It's so pretty loaded with white blossoms (and bees!) and smells so good that I can't bring myself to rip it all out:

Party, wow. That is a lot of fragrant flowers. Going to miss those in a week or two I'll bet once fall settles in. Ugh. Very nice.

I have a clematis like that taking over one of my pine trees and yet in full bloom I can not smell a thing. I don't get it. Very elusive with me(

Jane, thank you)))

You should get her into it. Once she gets one to bloom she will be hooked for sure. They are a lot easier to grow than one may think. I grow mine on beautiful black humidity trays all winter. What a difference to every one of them.

Yes, Logee's is the way to go. Small plants and a bit pricey but you get rare you can't find anywhere else, and I have just about every plant I bought from them from years ago. They are great quality plants. Very mature usually and flowering age.

Has your daughter ever been to Logee's? You could spend all day in that place. It is like a safari without the animals. Many plants huge planted in grown. Smells so good and in the winter, I call it a great escape)))

Half my citrus collection is from them Many of my orchids are too)

Bob, do you grow yours outside? Mines are stalking and flowering like never before since I have. I use to keep them inside or in my greenhouse but they love the rains and fresh air. They also get a lot more sunlight than anything I have indoors. please post a pic once it blooms. I had tow in full bloom and I stuck them in my kitchen window that faces East for the summer and every morning the sun would rise, I could smell that from a couple rooms away, especially when I went to reach in the refridge right next to that window))

Bonasi, than you. Smell awesome. Everyone that comes over tells me my yard smells like heaven all year long until the frost.

Meyermike,iI am growing mine under some grow light indoors for now.iI will post once they bloom though!
