It's cooling off here, so i turned off the AC last night. When i opened the door i smelled a beautiful smell. I turned on the light and here's what i found blooming. http://www.bananas.org/gallery/watermark.php?file=6025&size=1 (http://www.bananas.org/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=6025&ppuser=656)

Gorgeous picture of a superb plant. There is a nightbloomer (but different type I think) in a nearby village, and when I next see them cutting it back, I will stop and beg a piece. Seeing yours has made me even more determined to get some - is yours a climber or self-supporting and upright?

Thanks all. Right now i have a support in the pot, but i hope as the stem gets bigger it can support itself. To get them to bloom you have to keep them cool and dry during the winter.
