{{gwi:207852}} Photobucket has changed and for some reason I can't get two photos on the same posting so here is another one. This has been blooming for about three days adn it is beautiful. It is in a plastic pot and I had set it inside another pot. It was leaning to one side and heavy, fell, broke the pot but not the blooms. I have now set it inside a larger pot and that is where it will stay, no repotting.

This should be in the gallery where I have posted two more that are blooming.

That is really lovely! I have a Blc Mary Battle that is very similar and blooming right now, but yours are 2 inches larger. Very jealous.

And you did that in your dry climate!!!?

Wonderful and absolutely great work. Thank you for sharing. What does it smell like? It looks huge too. How big are the flowers?

Obscene, Shirley! What hormones are you feeding this plant?

Beautiful color.

I grow it in my greenhouse/garden room so it is out of our 100 degree summers but it still gets about 80 in there. The blooms are 7" . I put osmocote on it last spring and nothing since then. I don't know how to tell you what the fragrance is but it is really nice and very pronounced during the day time.
I'm glad you all like it.

Beautiful!

I have it, ditto to all of the above. Got it from Kawamoto, i think they still have blooming sized plants.
