Hooray! I'd given up with the monthly blooming threads since not many people participated. :)

My Mayor's Red has several bloom spikes shooting up. Can't wait to sniff it.

I pretty much missed our Neofinetia falcata orchid blooming since it started right when we went away to Colorado for a week. Did sniff it a couple of nights when we got back but am starting to wonder if it's worth it for such a brief bloom period.

And I've given up on Gladiolous murielae since I can't get much scent from it.

Very nice stuff so far! Here are mine.

Dianthus petraeus noeanus: sweet and spicy.

Nelumbo Mrs Perry Slocum: very rosy.

A lily whose name I forget.

A lily whose name I forget.

And frostproof which are all still going strong.

Few of mine

Hoya hoya lacunosa one of my top hoyas for fragrance really fills the room with its wonderful scent

Best fragrant cacti beats Oxypetalum hands down! epiphyllum cooperi although the flower is just going over more buds to come :)

Polianthes tuberosa lavender it is just coming into flower as you can see! there is also a second spike :) the white version was a big disappointment i hope this one lives up to the hype

mount etna broom is in full flow if you need a cold hardy plant that can survive poor dry soil this is the plant for you :)

Lilly not sure of name but it has a nice fragrance

Cestrum nocturnum

macranthos, Your lotus is gorgeous! I love it, I started some from seed this year, they are growing, but still leave stage. Next year I hope I get a bloom half as beautiful as yours! THey are un named lotus variety, so it will be a surprise to see what color they are. I also grew the American yellow lotus from seed and it is growing and doing good.

I have heard the american native lotus is fragrant also, so I am looking forward to a bloom from that one also.

I got these Casa Blanca lilies because Robert was raving over them. I love the scent and find them more appealing than Stargazers scent-wise. There is less of that musky note and its well balanced. And Singapore plumeria.

That water lotus is stunning. Like Butterfly I've always wanted one to sniff. :)

Dar, Haha. Glad you like the scent. I still think Satisfaction is the best scented lily I've sniffed so far. Tall strong grower that so far has not needed to be staked and the scent reminds me of rosewood or something very pleasant.

My young Clematis Mandshurica. When you're least expecting it waft's its almond scent in a 8' radius. Flowered for 3 weeks.

It is a good alternative for those who cannot grow rubromarginata.

It is the white one. The blue one is multi-blue (unscented)

Nelumbo is actually pretty hard to grow here. It's just barely warm enough to keep the plant going: our nights are too chill to keep the water warm. But this year has been as hot as hades so the plant seems to be doing better. If you're ever in the Portland area, Hughes Water Gardens (10 min from me, so I'm practically cheating with my lotus) is definitely worth a trip in the summer. They have a huge tropical house with lotus and Victoria lilies, etc. Very fun.

Where did you buy that water lily. Its so nice.

Robert, now you have me wanting the Satisfaction lily. They are gorgeous!

My double Quisqualis indica is opening. It's going to have a lot more flowers but I couldn't resist.

And one of these...

And my Carissa macrocarpa Tom Thumb is continuing with its little businesses.

And a lily opened today: i don't remember which one... I'd have to look. Probably Casa Blanca...

wow, beautiful flowers...

@ macranthos - Gorgeous flowers, your lotus and lily look very pretty.

@fragrant2008 - Nice flowers, it seems you are in zone 8a and your tuberose rose and Cestrum nocturnum are blooming already. I'm also in zone 8a/Dallas but for me both of them are yet to bloom. Are you from DFW metro area?

@ Dar & Robert - awesome lilies. I tried growing oriental lilies in Dallas, they bloom for the first year, some comeback next year but many don't. I gave up on oriental lilies and moved to daylilies, so far they are consistent bloomers.

No fruits_veggies i wish i lived in America but i am a afraid i am from cold rainy UK :( My Tuberose are kept in a frost free greenhouse and then moved into the house in a south facing window around about the middle of February as the extra warmth brings them on to start growing earlier so they have time in the short summer to flower

Hey everyone - hope you're all enjoying the summer:) We're having an unprecedented dry spell here in normally rainy BC and we're under strict watering restrictions. Plants are so stressed & some flowers look like miniature versions. Anyway, a few things are still flowering...

'Sweet Rosy' double oriental - really like that this has no messy pollen. Nice scent & huge flowers despite the drought. Very long bloom period too

Good ole 'Casablanca'

Hosta 'Guacamole' - love it

Hosta 'Summer Fragrance' Lovely colour & pure perfume

'Frostproof'. Can't believe how this has weathered cold and now drought. Prolific & green

Jasminum sambac 'Mysore Mulli' has been pumping out its deliciously scented flowers.

Cymbidium ensifolium 'Mayor Red' has been blooming for a couple of weeks now with its sweetly scented blooms.

Brassavola nodosa has been sending its spicy scent far and wide on these hot muggy nights.

Gosh, I am so Tempted by all these beautiful orchids. I am having more success with my indoor plants so I wonder if I should...?

Speaking of indoor plants, here is my Chinotto going through a 2nd flush. Perfume is just wonderful, creeping out from the sun room into the living room:)

Ugh...must resist buying a Citrus myrtifolia ‘Chinotto’!

Laugh.

It's also very well-behaved, Robert, if that helps, haha. Really nice small leaves. I pruned after last blooming as I wanted a fuller tree shape, and it is sprouting out lots of nice side shoots

'Belle of India' in all it's beauty.
