Best Fragrance in the Night

NIGHT JASMINE
The fragrance is so strong and concentrated, you can't breathe it in too long without getting a headache! It's sweet smelling perfume permeates the night and drifts on the cool dewy air.
*
The moths are all about it in the dark, but they quickly disappear when light appears.
*
The blossoms don't last but a night or two, but the fragrance continues to linger in the foyer. even entering the house when the door is opened.

Morning Susan,
Yea, I love the smell of Jasmine,
luscious.............but can definitely be a lil overpowering as you say.

Your bush has gotten really large,
bet it is way prettier even that the picture. Hard to capture the real beauty of things sometimes, course, at those times............
I always like to think maybe the Lord is saying this is just for you! lol

Have a good Monday hon,
Nellie

I got plenty to do today since I haven't done much all weekend.

Hi Susan

Interesting fact. I get headaches really easily but I love Lilic bushes. I am not sure what the smell of Jasmine is.

Just think of all the fun Adam had naming all the plants.

Blessings & Love
Janet
