First bloom on a very young plant with only a 5" leaf span!

Nope, not a miniature. I am told from the grower I purchased the seedlings from, that all have been flowering at a very small size with the quantity of flowers increasing and branching inflorescence as the plant gets larger.

One month later and the flower is still very alive. Fragrance is quite strong. It smells very spicy, with hint of cloves.

Cool, I wouldn't expect such a small flower to last so long.
