D. binata flower

DerbyCityNeps

Always a newbie- Previously glider14
i have 2 clones of D. binata which i name has #1 and #2. one is bigger(#1) that the other(#2)(arrived at same size) one has bigger flowers(#1) than the other does(#2). and the better(#1) of the 2 clones has scented flowers. and it is very noticeable and rather pleasant. do binata flowers usually have a pleasant scent or any scent at all?

sounds interesting! mine didn't...i'll check my multifida extremea later...i sure hope so!

but to answer your question, no, i dont think they usually do smell.
 
I have 2 binatas one is BRIGHT red and one is slightly smaller and bronzey/minimal red.
The red one is in flower so when do they open ? I can see a few flower petals but when do they blooms ?
The stalk is done growing.
 
ok here we go. only a flower of the scented clone is open
