Nice! Mine the fragrance can be too strong for me to be around long. This past blooming not as much (or maybe I was just out later in the day to care for plants), but the previous year, it really gave me a headache.

This has since finished blooming, been potted up (AGAIN!) - into a 10" pot, which looks like it may hold the plant for a year and has a new spike

Have you posted a pic of your Sharry Baby for us to admire?

I'm not sure what variety I have but I was told they are only scented when they first open for a bit....mine has a small (compared to yours) spike mostly bloomed but with a few still to open but no smell? I wasn't home for when it opened so can't say in regards the info I was told but I'm curious about yours...is it a time of day thing?

Thanks
