I like the sound of this summer flowering bulb.  I gather that it is 'highly fragrant' but can anyone tell me what sort of scent it has?  Thanks.   :)

Eighty-eight views and not one reply.  :(  Surely someone grows this lovely plant?   ???

I wasn't one of the 88 - I must have missed this post the first time round.  Just googled it as I hadn't heard of it before - hmmmm, where's me plastic?  ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)

Hi Georgie,

I hadn't seen your post either and can't help you as I had to google them too, they look pretty though, and I would love to see an answer to your question, good luck. :)

Thanks for your replies, Asbean and Tulipa.  :)

I get rather cross when plants are described as 'highly fragrant' without an indication of what the scent is.  For example I love the scent of Lilies and Jasmine but cannot abide anything that smells of vanilla or chocolate. (Yes, I know I'm odd!) 

I do hope someone will be able to put me out of my misery soon.   :)
