💌 What Pinwheel flower is fragrant?

  • 🌸 Tabernaemontana australis, or Australian Pinwheel, is a stunning plant that makes an exceptional addition to any rare fragrant plant collection.
  • 🌸 With beautifully shaped, white pinwheel-like flowers and strikingly dark, glossy leaves that are elongated and pointed, this plant is a feast for the eyes and a treat for the senses.
  • 🌸 Ideal for adding interest to landscape understories, Australian Pinwheel is a slow-growing, low shrub that can be maintained at a manageable 3-4 feet, or allowed to reach up to 5-6 feet, forming a dense, bushy specimen. This versatility makes it an excellent choice as an accent plant, specimen, or container plant.
  • 🌸 Though it shares similarities with other species like Tabernaemontana divaricata (Pinwheel Jasmine) and T. orientalis (Banana Bush), this Australian native has its own unique character. Its blooms resemble those of T. africana but are smaller, at about 1 inch in diameter.
  • 🌸 If you're looking to add an exotic, fragrant, and eye-catching plant to your collection, the Australian Pinwheel brings elegance and distinction, standing out with its lush foliage and starry, white blossoms!
