Pot Sweet Norma 'Hilo'
This is a Big Box bag baby I purchased about a year ago while visiting family in Florida.... not bad for a $6.00 plant! I haven't noticed a fragrance, yet. Not that I could do anything about it but one of the flowers opened up-side-down!

So sweet, what a wonderful find! Great growing, I love the contrary bloom that decided to be different.

Yep, and they have them in smaller pots for about a dollar less. This is in a 4" pot. The thing is you have to be in the right place at the right time because they usually keep them indoors and almost never water them so after about 3 or 4 weeks of zero care they begin to look pretty nasty! These are from Better Gro and are in most of the Big Box stores in Florida.
