Coral jasmine is a beautiful shrub that adores flowers only at the night time for a short period of year.
It is a unique jasmine plant variety where petals of pure white color adores a flower stalk which is beautiful orange in color.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful plant! Such interesting facts about it. I have an indoor Madagascar Jasmine that I adore.
ReplyDeleteWhen my husband and I made holidays in India (October / November 2010 and 2013) we saw these pretty plants. I didn't know their name but I used the blossoms to adorn my hair :-)

Beautiful! I love jasmine plants. I had one in the garden years ago and brought it in the house for the winter but it eventually died. When we were in Savannah a few years ago Jasmine was growing everywhere and the smell was heavenly!
ReplyDeleteOh how beautiful. I’ve never had a jasmine plant. I do love the smell but they would not do well here in New England.
ReplyDeleteI once woke up in St. John Island in a tent and on a bed of jasmine. Heavenly! Nice fresh shots.
ReplyDeleteThank You for your nice photos, and for inviting me to join this fine party!
ReplyDeleteI love the heady smell of jasmine. It's just coming into bloom here and you're hit with it as you walk past gardens in the street...
