One of my favorites for fragrance. The flowers don't always open all the way for me.

I'm waiting for that one to bloom for me, I've heard it is VERY fragrant.

Hetty, it smells like a Epiphyllum oxypetalum flower, Queen of the Night, to me. It's very strong. I love it. I sent a cutting to Luc last year because he didn't have it.

Still blooming and still one of my favorites:

There is something about that petal behavior that I love... very pretty

Hi Brittany! Me too. Sometimes, the flowers don't open all the way, but I think that only adds to it's charm, and it doesn't affect the fragrance, which is fantastic. It seems to be a reluctant brancher though and a slow-grower, but it's still one of my very favorites.

Slow grower is fine, as long as it still blooms :)

It does seem to be a reliable bloomer for me, and I've had it about three years now.

It is beautifull and I wish I could smell the fragrance through the computer. I have smelled such a flower on my holliday and it was heavenly!!!
