Now in full bloom, this plant is able to scent a very large area. It's not the easiest to photograph.

Awesome ... very clean and well grown.
Have you considered having it judged?

Beautiful. Is it real?!! Mine doesn't look like that :-(

Thank you, everyone, for your comments.

Linda, yes, it's real--I promise. :-)

Owen, I'm too lazy to haul it to Chicago or Cincinnati to be judged. And I don't know that I could tolerate being in the car with it for that long. The scent is very soapy. It's not a bad scent, but it certainly isn't one that makes you want to spend a lot of time admiring it at close proximity. Besides, it's a mosquito magnet. Luckily, they're the males and not the blood-sucking female mosquitos. But it's a little unsettling to move the plant and observe a swarm of mosquitos take flight.
