Murraya Paniculata seed

LATIN NAME: Murraya paniculata

COMMON NAME: Orange Jessamine

One whiff of the orange jessamine in the warm evening air is enough to explain its fame. The compact, neat, evergreen shrub carries the glossy, dark-green, pinnate leaves and the dense clusters of the small, white, intensely fragrant flowers through the warm season, and the fragrance carries across the garden on the evening air. The shrub is one of the fine, sweet-scented plants of the warm regions, taking the clip well and flowering on and off through the year. It is a shrub of the open, sunny, well-drained ground.

Scientific Research & Plant Biotechnology

The orange jessamine is a familiar name in the work on the small, white, intensely fragrant flowers and the glossy, pinnate leaves. The way the fragrance carries on the warm evening air has been studied at length, and the shrub keeps showing up in the studies of the fragrant plants, the hedging shrubs and the members of the citrus family. The neat, compact habit and the long season of the flowers have also made it a fine garden shrub, and the orange jessamine is a regular figure in the work on the scented plants of the warm garden.

Ecological & Economic Value & Wide Applications

The orange jessamine fills the warm garden with its scent and its many uses. The dense clusters of the small, white flowers carry the fine, sweet fragrance across the garden, and the glossy, dark-green foliage makes the shrub a fine, neat hedge, screen and container plant, taking the clip well. The plant has its own record in the old practice and the perfumery of the warm regions, and the flowers draw the bees and the moths of the evening. It has been written about in the horticultural and the perfumery papers for the evening fragrance and the neat, glossy ways, and it is a fine, long-lived shrub of the open, sunny, well-drained garden.

To grow the orange jessamine from seed, sow the seeds from fresh orange-red berries at once in pots of moist, free-draining soil, covering them thinly, keep the pots in a warm, bright spot and water gently. The seedlings appear within a few weeks and grow on steadily. With the sun, the warmth and the well-drained ground, the sweet scent will fill the evenings of the warm season.
