VARIEGATED NYCTANTHES ARBOR-TRISTIS

These are photos taken last June 13.

NYCTANTHES ARBOR-TRISTIS (VARIEGATED)

The variegated Nyctanthes was flowering recently and I couldn't help it but took one of the flowers and inverted it to show the orange corolla tube against the white petals. The arrangement of the petals remind me of the Pinwheel Flower (Scientific Name: Tabernaemontana species; Family: Apocynaceae).

NYCTANTHES ARBOR-TRISTIS

I know I posted this a few posts ago, but I am so intrigued by the new and old leaves of this variegated plant.

I was thrilled when I first saw the variegated Nyctanthes arbor-tristis, but I was even more thrilled when it started to flower. Too bad, I didn't manage to see the fully-bloomed flowers because when I got to it 2 days ago, the flowers were already gone.
