venosa x sumatrana

[dangerouseddy]

got to admit the flowers are really nice, is it me or are yellow phals more floriferous?

[WhiteRabbit]

Nice!

Nice, what is the scent like if it has any, I've seen descriptions of venosa smelling like cooked ham or crushed centipedes whatever that smells like?

[dangerouseddy]

hmm it is hard to describe , a sort of acidy chemical smell maybe crushed centipedes but not ham unless my sniffer isn't working right somebody else smelled it and said it smelled of lemons

got a couple of venosa hybrids and they all smell very much the same, cant say I'm a fan of the scent though.

much prefer bellina, got a few violacea's but none have flowered but have heard they smell nice.

[dangerouseddy]

could be that the sumatrana is the predominant smell since its a primary hybrid. might buy a pure venosa at some point if I can find room.

having re-smelt the other venosa hybrids ive got to say they do smell similar
