I recently ordered another plant of Aglaia odorata to replace one I had years ago that unexpectedly died. I remembered it being easy growing (until its sudden death) and fragrant, with a delicate, sweet, elusive lemony scent that would take you by surprise when you least expected it. To my nose, it was a unique perfume that was not mimicked by any other flower or plant that I know of.
This time I want to make sure I do everything right to keep it happy, healthy and productive for years to come.
So, for those of you who have been growing it for a while, what can you tell me about its likes and dislikes? Any advice or secrets you care to divulge? Any quirks that need to be addressed?
Also, out of curiosity, where do you rank this species among your other fragrant plants? Near the top, or closer to the bottom, and why? I love hearing how other gardeners perceive some of my favorites.
Good gardening to all of you,
Ispahan
