The leaves are opposite, simple, 6–12 cm (2.4–4.7 In) long and 2–6.5 Cm (0.79–2.56 In) broad, with an entire marginit bears tubular, white, and fragrant flowers with orange stalks. As the name suggests, these intensely scented blooms unfurl during the night time and fall apart in the morning.This shrub does well in full sun to part shade. For abundant blooms, the more sunlight the plant is going to get, the better it will be. Avoid planting it at a shaded location.Night flowering jasmine likes consistently moist but not saturated soil. Water it deeply and thoroughly whenever top soil feels dry to touch. Do not let the soil go out dry completely at any point in time. This plant does well in loose and well-draining soil with a ph of 5.6-6. Although, it will be more than happy to grow in regular garden soil too.
