Hi Monika,
It has a slight fragrance, but not one most people love. Not a sweet floral scent. To me it smells like olive oil. |

Olive oil is not that bad...could be worse,could smell like a Bulbo  |

You have a point-re smelling like some of the Bulbo's. Well, mine will some day get too big for my shelves so then a piece will be headed your way . |

Shoot, to my nose 'Summit' smells just like a Bulbo! You really have to stick your face in the flower though. Though its stunning to see in real life! |

I guess which Bulbo tho I'm only familiar with several. My Bulb. Elizabeth Ann 'Bucklebury' barely smells, and while not sweet and floral, it isn't gross. But it maybe is similar to my percivaliana.
Do different cultivars of percivaliana have very distinct smells? I notice you say 'Summit' smells like a Bulbo. |

I've noticed that some cultivars do smell a bit different than others and some people will even find one cultivar offensive, but not another. I'd be curious to line several up and sniff them all at the same time! |
