Cestrum nocturnum
Night Blooming Jasmine

Cestrum nocturnum, commonly known as Night-Blooming Jasmine, is a fast-growing, evergreen shrub renowned for its intensely fragrant flowers that bloom at night. Its slender, dark green leaves form a dense, bushy structure, providing a lush backdrop for clusters of small, tubular, creamy-white to greenish flowers. These blooms release a powerful, sweet scent after dusk, filling gardens and patios with a heady, tropical aroma that attracts moths and other nighttime pollinators.

Cestrum nocturnum thrives in warm climates and prefers full sun to partial shade with well-drained soil. While it grows quickly and can reach several meters in height if left unpruned, regular trimming helps maintain a compact, ornamental shape and encourages more prolific flowering. It is relatively low-maintenance, drought-tolerant once established, and ideal for fragrant garden corners, hedges, or near outdoor seating areas where its night-time perfume can be fully enjoyed. Its striking scent, lush foliage, and delicate nighttime flowers make it a captivating addition to any garden.
