cool. i've always wanted one of those, and was thinking of trying to
order one from dowery, but i grow on a windowsill in maryland and am not
sure i wouldn't kill it.... the big husky hybrids do ok but i don't
know about a species.

(oh, nice anemone on your website header.

That's pretty too. Almost solid red. A good one. Have you noticed a
fragrance? How would you describe it?

Those tinyurls are usefull.

I haven't noticed any fragrance. That flower was open for 12 days
before I was able to see it, so maybe its faded away by now.

Lovely Dustin, as to the smell, they say that Phal mannii is fragrant, thus
far, I've not been able to pick up any scent, at any time of the day or
night

Someone told me that after a few generations of breeding the fragrance
normally seen in a wild plant is lost. I have no idea if thats true
though.

I got a few from Dowery that smelled very sweet and candy-like when the day
was very bright. It was a strong fragrance and hard to miss. Mine are not
nearly as solid red as yours.

Al, by the way, after I posted Phal. Melodious Bells x violacea to abpo you
asked about fragrance. I did as you suggested, and when the light is
highest it does have a slight aroma, very pleasant, but very faint.
