Thanks all, it does have a scent Sticky, Amy I kept it in a cold greenhouse this winter because last year it was outside and the frosts came before the flowers opened, this year they have just made it :o)))

I had to abort mine this summer as they had RSM - outdoors!!! They seem to be caviar to the spider mite sadly.........

They are indeed i've had real problems with them as well.

Since the move I've been more or less RSM free, but they persisted on this. So I let them die back early, removed and cleaned the bulbs before potting back up for next year.
