@lamaisonbleueoleron Steve throw some Chanel no. 5 over yourself whilst viewing this pic...... #smellysmartphone 👃👃😃

yay! u have been very patient :) how's the back?

@Squares thanks for asking! Am waiting to see spec again after another MRI!!? Pain the same and still trying to work....slowly driving me insane, but luckily my garden is coming to life and my brugs are starting to bud which always gets me excited....trips to the garden at 5.30am to see how they're doing!!! #oddballneighbour #possiblepeepingtom !!

Look great another new plant for me to see . I feel for you pain is not easy to cope with .sending you healing Nicko 💕👋🏼

Wow the learning never ends here on GT 😃😃 Ylang Ylang is one of my favourite essential oils to use in aromatherapy but I've never seen the flower-thanks for posting this pic!

sorry to hear Nick, i do hope theyre able to resolve it, us gardeners all seem to suffer with backs... haha! your neighbours must wonder what you're up to 😜 lovely to see everything burgeoning 😄

Thanks @tina !! ❤️

@riakat glad you like flower, I must say the fragrance is not strong, like a jasmine, but when you get close it is much more elegant than anything I've smelt. It has lots of layers to it. Difficult to put into words!! This plant is a dwarf version of the tree. You can keep this as a houseplant and it flowers when young. My plant is only a year old! 😃

@drnicko thanks for sharing this info. It sounds like it would be a wonderful addition to my houseplants! Will be on the lookout for it 😍

Flower still not "matured" so no fragrance yet....😫😫😫

:( *there there*

@MelanieAt I just want one little smell!! It would feel like success....I've been growing the plant for 2 years now!! 😬😬

Patience!!! 😉

come on! smell damn you!!!

Update on Dwarf Ylang Ylang flower....still not yellow, so no fragrance yet....hopefully soon #fragrantflower #tropicalplant #ylangylang #gardens #gardening

#fragrant #tropical

wow impressive I've used this in aromatherapy 🙌🏼👍

@lamaisonbleueoleron they don't smell though until they go yellow, only at night and high humidity - I've bed waiting all week!!

@tessafox-veling ⬆️

On inspection this evening I noticed some #flowers on my dwarf ylang ylang (and yes a small case of aphids - before anyone points them out!)

😂

@latebloomer they're gonna get it tomorrow from me though....sore back or not..💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🐜🐝💥💥☠

Hope you back get better soon great shot 😊
