Already in bloom!

One of the sinningias I posted about earlier, that I just got on August 4, is already in bloom, and delightfully fragrant. I thought when I read that some sinningias are fragrant it might be one of those 'on the right day, at the right hour, if you hold your nose (that doesn't sound right does it!) at the right angle, and if you have a good imagination...' things, but I'd forgotten all about it when I thought I saw flowers. Rushed out to investigate, and there is no imagination required! Really lovely kind of citrusy sweet scent. It's S. conspicua, and the flowers are creamy yellow slippers, kind of like S. eumorpha, if you know that one--or maybe a floxglove! Plenty more buds coming. I'm really pleased--such nice-sized plants, and such quick service, and this isn't the only one with buds.
