Night-blooming jasmine (Cestrum nocturnum) is a fast-growing woody shrub that belongs to the Solanaceae family. It is not a true jasmine but gets its name from its tubular greenish-white or yellow flowers that emit a highly fragrant scent at night. The plant has a sprawling habit and is attractive to butterflies and other pollinators. Despite being invasive in some regions, it is commonly grown in containers, as a border hedge, or as a houseplant. All parts of the plant, especially the berries, are toxic to people and animals. Night-blooming jasmine requires moist conditions, at least six hours of direct sunlight daily, fertile well-draining soil, frequent watering during the growing season, warm temperatures with high humidity, and regular fertilization for optimal growth. Pruning after flowering helps control its invasive traits. The plant can be propagated from cuttings but cultivating it from seeds can be challenging due to dormancy issues in wild soils. Common pests include aphids and caterpillars which can be managed with water blasts or insecticidal soaps.
