Author Message   Goswimmin  My Favorite Photo My Weather Posted on Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 03:41 pm EST :    I was given a small piece of this plant this year and it is just now starting to bloom. I think if it was in the sun it probably would do better. The aroma from the flower is just wonderful and I read that it is used to make expensive perfumes and I can see why.

It actually doesn't want full sun--it does best in dappled shade, and the one I grow indoors in a pot even blooms every year (it is blooming now). But it does like regular water.
