Thought I would share these today because they are one year old plants from my oldest Maid of Orleans prior to her demise last July. I had 105 cuttings and this is all that is left. 13 of them. They are just beginning to bloom and they are so small but so happy and healthy. I lost all of the others this winter because of the warm winter, I could not keep the GH at the proper humidity and temps that is needed for these little guys to grow. I was just sick about loosing all of them, but I have three three year old plants I kept from the first Maid and they are going to give me some cuttings in a week or two hopefully.
Take a real long smell................................oh my they are just so sweet and comforting. I am great on the aroma therapy...enjoy.
Another beauty that is growing in this heat and really thriving is the Gardenia Taitensis. I only have one cutting alive from that one. Lost so much over the winter.
Keep on breathing in deeply and enjoy these beautiful fragrance. All will be fine and peaceful...relax.
