Ok the second bulb from the Peruvian Daffodil bloomed with two flowers...I checked, morning, afternoon and night and sadly no fragrance, it's also very humid here...there was a very slight smell, but nothing I would call a fragrance. It has been in bloom for 3 days so far, I tried each day. It could also be due to it being the first flower, but I'll have to wait till next year for the blooms again. Note that these bulbs were from lowes so even though they say on the package they are fragrant.....it's a big box store so I don't have as much faith in them.

My Dwarf Ylang-Ylang Tree (Cananga odorata var. fruticosa) finally got it's first flower but it's green and there is no smell....I was reading the PF and most of the flowers are yellow....hopefully mine will turn yellow soon and get some fragrance. There are a few different opinions out there... I guess I'll have to wait. I have it in my lanai in bright filtered light, maybe it needs more sun? it certainly is a very pretty flower though.
