NIGHT BLOOMING JASMINE
An evergreen woody shrub growing to 13 ft tall. The leaves are simple, narrow and lance shaped, broad, smooth and glossy, with an entire margin. The flowers are greenish-white, with a slender tubular corolla, almost an inch long with five acute lobes, that open at night and releases a powerful, sweet perfume. The fruit is a small aubergine colored berry. The fruits and foliage should not be consumed as there are mixed reports regarding their toxicity.
