Candee - tuberoses do smell great - but I don't have too many blooms anymore. I had one patch that did great - so great that I decided to divide it. Big Mistake - never got hardy any blooms after that in any of the split patches. that dahlia may be a cactus type, but I am not sure. I have to share this bloom of Hedychium gardnerianum. Whereas the above tuberose move was disastrous, this is one of my success stories. I moved some of this from the backyard where it got afternoon sun to the front porch with morning sun and it bloomed a good 2 months earlier than normal. Bonus comes with no burnt leaves in this dappled morning light area. The abutilon is in the background.
