Very nice. Mine used to have the scent of sweet lemon. Does yours?

Yes ,I have notice that kind of fragrance ,but very faint.

Whenever I read about fragrant miniatures, I think about how dangerous it would be to give them a whiff. One sniff, and the plant would lodge itself up your nose.

I'm not usually into minis, but this one's cute.

That's a really great shot of such a tiny flower. These are so cute and I love them.

Thank you all for your time to take a look on my Haraella, but I must mention the best ever comment of Angurek, I am still laughing

I just got one of these last week that was just about to bloom. Now it has opened and my boyfriend and thought they kind of look like little angels with beams of light shining from behind it's head.

I just picked up one of these today and she's in bud - lot's of little buds actually.

Any tips on culture? I've never had one of these in the collection before. I really don't want to kill this one - she's so cute.

By the way - LOVE the picture - macro lens?

Great growing.
