The ylang-ylang likes to bloom in the rainy season. Its essential oil is a popular base note in perfumery formulation – quite heady and sophisticated at the same time.
It always is a pleasant presence in the garden when it blooms.

I’ve never thought of ylang-ylang as being a real flower somehow. It’s lovely. Something like a magnolia?
