I have a small seed grown one. Originally I received a bunch of sprouted ones, but they over-lengthened and weakened in the mail, suffered transplant shock and died. The smallest sprout survived with no shock.

I'm hoping that the one survivor turns out to be a male. They flower year round and are very fragrant, said to be like a fruity rose. The flowers are used as a flavoring called kewra.

The leaves of both genders are fragrant and used to flavour rice or sweets, but I really hope it's a male for the fragrant flowers.
