Now, Hetty. You need to change the "will" to "might". You know one of my seedlings formed its flower stalk at 13 mo. and began to bloom at 14 months. At 15 months she was in full bloom with eight flowers at one time. She is still in bloom three months later. Our cool, wet weather over the last couple of weeks has slowed her blooming though. My wife still hasn't named her.

By the way, we have a very good friend who is some sort of expert identifying fragrances. She used to be in the cosmetic industry, creating fragrances from various essences. Anyway, my wife asked if she might drop by and tell us what the fragrance is of not only the seedling's flowers, but also four other varieties that are in bloom now. Everyone who comes to the house is "forced" to smell those seedling flowers and tell me what fragrance it reminds them of. I even make the construction guys do it (but they aren't much help ). A lady came over yesterday and said the fragrance reminded her of honey suckle. I never thought of that and she might be right.
