Reply:Yes.





When I was growing up in California my Mom had one planted in the backyard and every June, July and August when the days got over 100 and the nights were just as hot, I would have the window open and get the wonderful smell wafting of the evening breeze. What a treat that was.
Reply:Absolutely, night blooming jasmine can be purchased on line and at some specialty nursery's. They smell amazing and can be keep outdoors in the summer months and brought inside when the weather starts to become uncooperative.


I love jasmine and I will never get tired of the spectacular smell.
Reply:You can buy a night jasmine from a online nursery and keep in potted in your house. The flowers aren't much to look at but smell better than any other flower.
