Fragrant and beautiful. I got this as a seedling from Oak Hill Gardens about 10 yrs ago. This is the first time it bloomed.

Very nice flower. That would probably make a good Shombocat parent. I got a seedling from EOM last year. I hope I don't have to wait 10 years.

The seedling was a 2 or 3 growth established seedling, and it was already good sized. I'd say if you got a seedling that was just deflasked, you'd probably be looking at roughly a 13 - 15 year wait for the first blooms.
