PERFUME (Brauer 41) | BEN y fos Bogie 301 
We had some excellent spikes of Perfume this year and it isn’t too bad when 
it performs the way it did this year. We grow it principally for its fragrance 
which is very noticeable and transmits to a fair extend to its offspring. 
Color is creamy white with a small purple feather, not very pretty. Opens 
4 or 5 large florets on a medium tall stem.
