Today, we are going to discuss about two plants, which have very fragrant flowers and bloom only during night.
The first one, Cestrum nocturnum, common names include night-blooming jasmine, night-blooming cestrum, and raatrani.
The second one, Nyctanthes arbor-tristis, the night-flowering jasmine or parijat.

So, 3 reasons why you should have these in your garden…
For the late nights strolls that you take in your Garden.
For the fragrance. The enchanting fragrance spreads throughout your garden and your home.
They come in bunches. They have multiple blooms.
Isn’t it exciting? Few things to take care. Pot them in the biggest pot you have. Add sufficient compost while potting them. Add compost every month for initial 4 months and then once every 45-60 days.
Happy Gardening 🙂
