CESTRUM
NOCTURNUM
Night Blooming Jasmine
In my opinion , Cestrum nocturnum,
has the strongest fragrance out of all the fragrant plants we carry. In
the evening the fragrance becomes almost intoxicating. It is a common misconception
that this bush is fragrant only at night. It is true that the fragrance
is stronger in the evening but you can still smell a light scent all day
long. Plants bloom on and off during the warmer months of the year. Night
Blooming Jasmine grows very fast. You will have to trim it back (after the
flowers) and upgrade the pot size after a while. They should not be grown
in pots forever, but new plants can be started easily from cuttings if the
plant gets too big and old.
