Wow!! Amazing Photo. Keep it around for the next Calendar contest. Where did you get this one? And its a little difficult to gauge size, sorry if you said it already though, but how big is the inflorescence?

Thanks for the compliment on the photo :-)
As for the size the flowers are about 1in x 3in
Took another big whiff at noon and still no smell. I purchased it from Krull Smith, went there in person and they sold them for $15, I bought another labeled A-doribil Anna Lou, not sure what the difference is as it has yet to bloom, if I remember the explanation correctly, I think it is a cross of the same parents just reversed.

Laura

I just looked it up:
Anna Roth is (annandalei X Rothschildianum)
Anna Lou is (annandalei X Louis Sander)

How large is the plant, or maybe I should say what is the expected size of the plant? I think the roth would make that one quite large, but I have no idea about Louis Sander. What size are the bulbs?
