It self set itself in a pot in one of the Sarracenia lagoons in the middle greenhouse.

How long do the individual blooms last Fred? Do the bottom blooms fade before the top flowers open? dvg

The scent is now noticeable as soon as you enter the greenhouse. Wonderful!

Fred, have you noticed any pollinators attracted to its flowers? dvg

We were becoming concerned about Dacti this year as he seemed to be a little late sticking his nose out. I spotted his little snout forcing its way through the LIverworts this morning so cleared a small area around him and added a little dressing. Life should be less of a struggle for him for the rest of the season now.
