    Exquisite not only in appearance but also in it's delightfully strong, delicious fragrance. This is a surprisingly small plant, eleven inches tall with 5.5" flowers, two inflorescences on this robust plant still in a four inch pot. The flowers are better formed and larger on this second blooming.

    That's amazing. Is this a division or a seed grown plant?
