Jasmine, fragrant and as white as snow, has been a frequent guest in the writings of literati since ancient times. However, many people only know jasmine, but they don't know that the jasmine family also contains many unknown beautiful varieties. Let's take a look at what varieties of jasmine there are today.
Four-o'clock flower
Four-o'clock flower, as its name suggests, is unique with purple flowers. Different from the whiteness of traditional jasmine, the four-o'clock flower blooms quietly at night. Its flowers are funnel-shaped, and the color gradually changes from light purple to deep purple, emitting a faint fragrance. Although not as strong as jasmine in the daytime, it has a unique flavor. Not only are the flowers of the four-o'clock flower beautiful, but its seeds are also often used as medicinal materials and have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, allowing people to feel the gift of nature while admiring it.
Brunfelsia latifolia
If the four-o'clock flower takes the night as its stage, then Brunfelsia latifolia is the elf between day and night. When its flowers first bloom, they are blue-purple. As time passes, they gradually turn white. This wonderful two-color transformation makes Brunfelsia latifolia a unique flower in the flower world. It symbolizes the constancy of love.
Pearly jasmine
Pearly jasmine, its flowers are like pearls. Its petals are thick and full, the color is flawless white, and it emits a refreshing fragrance. Pearly jasmine is not only beautiful in flowers, but also has a long-lasting fragrance. It is an excellent choice for making jasmine tea. In the hot summer, brewing a pot of pearly jasmine tea can not only relieve the heat and quench thirst, but also let people taste the elegance and tranquility of life in the tea fragrance.
Tiger-head jasmine
Tiger-head jasmine, its flowers are much larger than ordinary jasmine. The petals are layered and thick and full of texture. The overall shape is like a tiger head ready to go, hence the name. The fragrance of tiger-head jasmine is strong and lasting, reaching people's hearts directly. However, it is precisely because of this domineering and uniqueness that tiger-head jasmine is relatively difficult to cultivate and requires more meticulous management and care. But once it is successfully planted, the fragrance and spectacular scene in the whole garden will definitely make you feel that all efforts are worth it.
These several common jasmines, including four-o'clock flower, Brunfelsia latifolia, pearly jasmine and tiger-head jasmine, all have their own characteristics and meanings, and they are different in shapes. Of course, in addition to them, there are many beautiful varieties of jasmine. You can choose your favorite variety for cultivation.
