After approximately 6 months of consistent growth, I am pleased to report that my Chinese Perfume Tree (Aglaia Odorata - first posted on June 6 2011) plant seems to be perpetually blooming .....a delight to both the eyes and the nose :-)) ! I am thinking of trying my hand at propagating it via cuttings when the plant gets a bit bigger and I need to prune it. It seems a sin to prune the plant when it is growing so well and into a natural nice shape as well. A month back I transferred the plant to a bigger pot as it seemed to have outgrown the small pot I first planted it in. This plant is fuss free and easy to care. The scent the blooms give off is very light, gentle, soothing and subtle - very pleasant and refreshing. No regrets at having bought this plant at all as I just love its fragrance.
