Blooming now, a plant i've had for years. Almost lost it once to rot. Now it's reestablished.

It's not a mini, really...at maturity, bulbs are onion sized and leaves to a couple feet long. Currently, my plant is 7 bulbs the largest of which is about the size of a tennis ball.

And yes it is fragrant...vaguely floral and powdery.
