Hiya, Tin! Nice work considering you thought he might be RIP. I LOVE Mini Mark! Also one of my most faves. Back in June, there was a bit of thread discussion about whether or not peoples' Mini Marks were fragrant. Mine is definitely fragrant. Subtle, but a really nice floral scent. Mine bloomed back in June and is blooming again right now with 6 flowers on two spikes.

Oooh, cool. Well maybe mine has to be "stronger" to get its mojo back.

Hopefully it's well on the road to recovering that mini mojo! Could be too that being in a tank makes it more difficult to get a hit on the fragrance?

Usually tanks amplify scents since they have no where to go. So when I get a fragrant orchid it really fills the tank, all I have to do is open the tank and I am punched in the nose by it.

Huh. Interesting! Well, it may be that your Mini Mark isn't fragrant too...I'd say the majority of people here who have one said last year that theirs was not fragrant.

Mine is fragrant....at least it was last summer. It is still blooming from the same spike but it's not fragrant now. I'm wondering if fragrance is somehow tied to room or tank temps. Warmer=scent, cooler=no scent?
