    Hi Kandy. Yes, it does have a good scent, smells of lemons. BTW, we too have been to Barnsdale (maybe 10 years ago?), fabulous place and I have to admit, I got a bit choked up when we sat in that part where the sculpture of his head is...'Geoffs Garden' ?
    Cheers...freddy.

    Hi WOO. Just out of interest, I counted the petals on another bloom. This time there were 28 :scratch:
    Is this normal ?
    Cheers...freddy.

    Hi Freddy Yes I perhaps should have explained more accurately and clearly :dh:,I do apologise :)The 45 petals I went by was OK, if you had given me the 28 petals first I would have asked you to count the Petals on each Bloom and took the largest count over a period of time,The Blooms can have 20 - 45 petals ,but having 45 that discounted 80% for me use in my quest for a 99% I.D.:)
