Wow, that is really neat. Maybe a candidate for the calendar, with a clearer photo. Not just nice to look but fragrant as well.

Thanks!
If you click on the little zoom tool on the lower right on the picture. . .it takes the pic out to full size. . .then it gets clearer.
I just figured this out and thought I would share. 
Calendar needs to be horizontal and you can only submit one picture per person. I've already submitted one.  |

Gwen, it's fantastic and that sure is a good match with the pot. I was so proud of my tiny one which was blooming but yours makes mine look puny. Maybe next year. I just love the color of the flower, and the way it smells.

I had no idea what pot would be right for it, until it bloomed. . .and I saw those colors!
I just about pass out when anything of mine blooms at all! And each blooming flush, can potentially just get better and better! Really challenging and fun for me.
Mine is puny too! That pot is only about 3-1/2 wide by maybe 2-1/4 tall! These are not big plants!
The colors and fragrance are both really terrific, I so totally agree!
You're doing great! Maybe start looking for a perfect pot to transplant it into for next spring? |

Gwen,
You deserve all the kudos you've been getting for raising this beautiful plant...and for displaying it in such an excellent fashion...this is obviously not just my opinion.

 If this is what you have now I can only imagine what you have submitted for the calendar. |
