Are these available?

Post by aykhan »

I'm wondering if the following plants are easily available. They seem like they should be everywhere but I don't think I've seen them in nurseries or private gardens. Mostly jasmines.

Yellow Jasmine ‘Revolutum’ (Jasminum humile)
Madagascar Jasmine (Stephanotis floribunda)
Chilean Jasmine (Mandevilla laxa)
Tree Jasmine (Holarrhena pubescens)
Dwarf Tree Jasmine (Radermachera kunming)
Yellow Gardenia (Gardenia coronata)

Yellow Jasmine ‘Revolutum’ (Jasminum humile) Common in lahore by the name of peeli chambeli. It is non fragrant. only flowers in spring. Not sure about Revolutum cultivar though.
Madagascar Jasmine (Stephanotis floribunda) Available at nurseries.
Chilean Jasmine (Mandevilla laxa) Not available but you do not worry, i have 2 plants, one of which i owe you :)
Tree Jasmine (Holarrhena pubescens) Heard for first time :? but another plant from Apocynaceae family
Dwarf Tree Jasmine (Radermachera kunming) This is bignonia family plant and a rare one. Not available. I am very interested to get it.
Yellow Gardenia (Gardenia coronata) Not available. Never heard of this species though
