Fragrant Plants

First Bloom

19 years ago

Walked outside yesterday while talking on the phone

to my mom. She ask what's blooming

out in your yard? I told her I couldn't

figure out where the sweet smell was coming from.

Holy cow ! The Stemmadenia is starting to bloom again.

I haven't seen a bloom since Christmas.

I love the fragrance!......cheryl

Wow, that is awsome! I am waiting for mine to bloom so that I can finally smell it. What &how often do you feed your stemmadenia.

I am sooooo jealous! Over here we've finally moved from snow to rain, and the sun is supposed to show up some time tomorrow, so spring is on the way, but we're still pretty short on blooms.

You may have pushed me over the edge to get one of these!

Enjoy!
