H minor has bloomed and is growing quite well in the back species garden. It is quite a fragrant flower and it blooms at night. The bloom lasts two or more days. It seems to thrive well along the edge of a small stream and it is in full sun. The area which I set to species naturalizing has gone wild with growth. The buds of H middendorfii and H dumortieri are quite prolific, hundreds of scapes, and this was from a small set of plants moved there just a little over a year ago.  The soils was rich clay-loam and had many years of leaf decay. The tree roots were not too invasive despite the many silver maples in the proximity.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The H minor branching is quite extensive as shown below. The flower is almost trumpet like and the branching is quite obvious. Also the scapes are thin and tend to droop. The scapes are almost perpendicular to the vertical, a horizontal bend.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The flower starts to bloom in the latter part of the day, stays open all the next day, and the next evening, and may easily last another day and even two.
