Ikebana #3

Tuberose, New Zealand flax and Dahlia.

A tuberose has a sweet smell and interestingly the smell gets strong at night.  I noticed the nice sweet smell when I entered a room after work, but in the next morning it didn't smell as strong as the last night.  First, I thought my noses were more sensitive in the evening with the light off than the sunny morning.   After looking over tuberose on the Internet, it turned out that a tuberose has a stronger smell at night!
