🕊 This sacred perfume tree is perfect for small spaces: Parijat blooms with heartbreak and heaven

• 
  Nyctanthes arbor-tristis, known as Parijat, Night Jasmine, or the Sad Tree, is more than a fragrant flowering shrub - it's a story wrapped in petals. This small tree from India with highly perfumed flowers is one of the most desired fragrant plants.

•

Its heavenly scent draws butterflies and hearts alike, and its ghostly, glowing flowers are used in Buddhist temples and traditional medicine - stems for headaches, leaves for liver ailments, and blossoms for fevers and faintness.
• 
  Parijat is a tree of romance, ritual, and resilience. Cold-tolerant to the 30s F, it can be container-grown in cooler zones. Just give it well-draining soil and a bit of fertilizer each month, and let the magic unfold!
