Default Haraella odorata - my favorite!!

I have 2 of this cute mini because they are just too wonderful!! But I have to say that I very much prefer the fragrance of this one compared to the other one, which was the project plant.

The project plant had a very chemical citronella smell, which was nice, but really artificial. This one on the hand, had the most wonderful tangy lemon scent, as if I were sniffing a cut lemon! I really didn'tt know that there could be so much variation in fragrance.

This one is mounted and the project one is potted, but I think I will be putting them together on the same mount for a nicer effect.

Camille, this one looks great! So much better than when I first saw it.
Good growing!

Thats a really good capture of the fringe.

Yes it is amazing how much the fragrance can vary between clones, also during the day.

That is a most exotic looking flower. I can't decide which insect it is trying to attract but my guess is that it is a bee.

When I had mine, it did produce a fragrance, but I have heard many say that they had no fragrance. It seems to be common.

Mine was in bloom when I got it. It had lemon smell. Mine was getting too dry, I tried several different cultures. It seems better on the Kool log. I do mist the entire plant once daily and keep the log full. It's on a very small log with a small pad of moss.
