Wabbit's Brassocatanthe Little Mermaid in bloom

'tis the season for these it seems ;)

Eight nice sized, very fragrant (rose-like) blooms.
This has been a very reliable bloomer for me.

Thanks for looking :)

Wow! Very beautiful, and rose fragrant to boot!! I'll have to keep my eye out for one of these. Great growing!

That's gorgeous. How many spikes to get 8 blooms? Mine is still blooming but I don't get much scent. Just checked it and maybe it is stronger at night-definitely rose like :)

Hope mine grows up to bloom as much as yours!

Thanks :blushing:

This has two spikes, 4 blooms on each. Mine seems to be strongly fragrant in the morning, and the scent fades as the day wears on.

If you are at a show that Ching Hua is attending, they have them for a good price. I got mine from them.

Hooray! The blooms on mine ended up lasting about 5 weeks from first open to last wilt...not too shabby !

:D
I can't remember how long mine have lasted in the past - around 4-5 weeks sounds about right - long lasting flowers are always appreciated!
