I read of other schilleriana threads mentioning that it is fragrant on one bloom then not the next bloom or the other way around.
Yes, the 3 philippines mottled leaf species (schilleriana, stuartiana, & philippinense) normally and easily throws out basal keiki and spike keiki. That's how they get huge. I know that others considers it as a stress but I think it's normal for this specie. It was once considers as a weed here since they easily grow in numbers happily producing keiki. Even stuartiana puts out a root keiki. I have several root keiki from our home province actually and I have one plant that already produced a basal keiki and a root keiki.
