night-blooming jasmine
Nocturnal flowering vine
Night-blooming jasmine is a tropical shrub whose small white flowers open after dark, releasing an intensely sweet fragrance that carries on the night air.
The plant attracts nocturnal pollinators like moths.
Gardeners prize it for scenting warm evenings: The night-blooming jasmine outside her window filled the bedroom with perfume.
