sceletium spp
Very highly scented in the warm sunshine today.
It’s a shame they flower as the foliage packs up for the year.Mike

It's finished flowering for me but here's a belated addition.

Re: sceletium spp
Mine stopped flowering last week Ralph. My greenhouses are unheated which could explain the time difference.
The plant is now growing, the new leaves are emerging from the skeletons of the old

Re: sceletium spp
Mine are in the unheated part of my greenhouse too. It's probably more down to when you and I water them.

Re: sceletium spp
The very narrow petals are attractive, aren't they?

Re: sceletium spp
Looks like a decent fireworks show, straight to the wishlist (keeping fingers crossed it's not crazy difficult to keep alive)!
