This year comes 4 spikes, the flowers have faint fragrance. Smell like the sweet osmanthus.

Default P. stuartiana I

Only one spike this year, but there are almost 40 flowers. Some buds turned yellow , if not, the number will be over 40. Sorry it has no fragrance.

My first bloom this year from P. equestis, excpt the variety of Samar, which has been blooming all year round.
I missed its blooms last year. This time I find its fragrance, almost as the same as P. schilleriana.
