Here is "my" lovely show of flowers!>>
I have had these indoor plants for some years now the first one being a cutt off from the top of my mothers plant. They have grown so tall I had to cut the top of twice and replant. Now I have 3 of them and the tallest being the original tip and is now approx 6ft tall which has just flowered this week (these are the first flowers I have had on my plants and I was totally surprised).
It started to appear 6 days ago (6th May 09 - Autumn in Australia) and took 2 days for the stem of unopened flowers to develop then 2 days ago the actual flowers started to open.The flowers only seem to pop out in the eve and last overnight then wilt and the new unopened ones come out the next eve. The scent is SO strong you cannot sit in the same room with out being affected by the overwhelming fragrance (because of this I'm almost considering keeping it outside for the time being...lol)
I know little bout this plant apart from the fact it grows so easily and didn't even think it produced flowers. I will monitor my flowers and see how many days/weeks they continue for.
Enjoy...
All advice is very welcome! I'm a newby
