Jasminum grandiflorum aka Catalonian Jasmine

Jasminum grandiflorum, also known as the Spanish jasmine, Royal jasmine, Catalan jasmine, or Sicilian jasmine, is a species of jasmine native to South Asia, the Arabian peninsula, East and Northeast Africa, and the Yunnan and Sichuan regions of China. This semi-evergreen or deciduous woody climber has compound glossy-green pinnate leaves with 7 to 9 opposite leaflets. From summer to autumn, it produces pink-tinged buds that open into highly fragrant 5cm white flowers. Although closely related to Jasminum officinale, it is considered a separate species. The plant is commonly cultivated and has naturalized in various regions such as Guinea, the Maldive Islands, Mauritius, Réunion, Java, the Cook Islands, Chiapas, Central America, and the Caribbean. In Sri Lanka, it is known as "saman pichcha" or "pichcha." While some cultures use the leaves for herbal medicine, the flowers are often used for their jasmine scent in perfumes. Originally grown for these purposes, it is now primarily grown as an ornamental plant. Jasminum grandiflorum belongs to the Oleaceae family of flowering plants.
