Polianthes tuberosa 'The Pearl'

And finally every bloom is open! Such an incredible #fragrance 😍

Just beautiful love these! 🤍

@Andreamarie ..... I've tried growing these, but no success .... what is the secret Andrea ? .......... are these in a pot, indoors, outdoors, or greenhouse.... what month to plant them ?

@johninbrighton so I bought 5 bulbs in total. I planted them all in pots early summer and kept in the greenhouse to start with. After a few months only 2 showed signs of life. The others looked like they'd rotted 😢 Maybe I'd over watered? Anyway I put the 2 outside for the remaining summer and this is the only one that flowered. Not a great success rate! But this one made it worthwhile 🙂

@Andreamarie ...... Thanks for the info. Andrea ......

Are the flowers really as highly fragrant as they’re said to be? 🤔

@jacaranda absolutely yes! They are in my conservatory but I can smell them throughout the house! Absolutely gorgeous fragrance 😊

Thank you! I love scented flowers and these sound just up my street 😍

So worth the wait! It smells beautiful 😍 #scented

Mmmmmm, #fragrant
