  1. We had an orchid tree in our yard when we lived in Miami and it bloomed the most gorgeous pale lavender flowers.
    Your tree reminds me of that one.

  4. No not fragrant Lori. I believe they're actually native to South America somewhere but they're very happy here too and grow quite enormous.
