Rolando, I got it! What does it smell like to you? This is a contest to you and all responants. I know the answer! Hint: It's not unpleasant, but not really sweet flowery either. Really weird. But it does mimick another plant in nature that gets lots of bees on the flowers. End of hints. 
By the way, here's mine:

Becca, get it! That's a directive  You'll never want for blossoms again. This plant seems to not stop blooming. Even reblooms on old canes! It requires no special care at all. |

They had a couple on the sale table and 2 on the raffle table. I made sure that as soon as my number was called on the raffle I got it. I had it hidden all they way in the back. LOL

Why are these not more in favor? If you want a mini that's in bloom nearly constantly, this is your choice. Yup, there are others, but with a nice scent? Well....
I always check mine out every time I water the orchidarium. Never stops scenting the tank. That and Cischweinfia. But that's another story |

  Not citrus to me, but for anyone with a Privet hedge (in the northern latitudes) along their property, they should recognize the fragrance. Now tell me, you've never caught honey bees in jars off privet hedge blossoms? Then you've never lived in the northern states as a "turning teen" kid. Can't tell you the number of times I've been stung by bees on those bushes.  But now you know the rest of the story. |
