OK, I remembered both to sniff and report. It's the last
of mine to flower, and is still around. It _does_ have a
distinct, pleasant fragrance, to my nose it does also
sniff like a rose. I got independent reports from two
persons of the female persuasion, who both say it has a fresh,
citrusy aroma, but nothing like a rose. What can I say...
Also, time of day seems not to matter; morning, noon or
night the fragrance is there. All in all, a nice thing.
