Tuberose
Tuberose The Pearl

Strongly fragrant and very big now as an export flower. 

Notoriously shy to flower, the secret is that each bulb will only flower once.  To ensure a succession of flowers, remove the numerous offsets from a flowered bulb and grow them in a separate area.  They will flower readily either one or two seasons later, but will not flower if left attached to the mother bulb, due to overcrowding.

Hymenocallis

This hardy bulb of the Amaryllis family produces beautiful 10-12 cm wide pure white blooms on 60-80 cm stems in early summer, they are delightfully scented.

The bulbs are very similar to Hippeastrum bulbs and should be planted in late winter or early spring with the top third of the bulb above the ground. Partial shade is tolerated well

Hymenocallis are an ideal bulb for potting.  The pots can be brought indoors during flowering to enjoy the fragrance.
