Fragrant Randia (Randia siamensis)

Fragrant Randia (Randia siamensis)
This delightfully fragrant shrub from Southeast Asia blooms throughout the year yet mostly during the warmer months in the north. The white, star-shaped flowers form in clusters and open over many weeks. Fragrant Randia always seem to be in bud, and the sweet smell of the fragrant flowers can go on for months. The stems are thorny and so handle the plant with care.
