Yar I dont really know yet but I'm hoping it starts blooming in the more hot and humid months like July onwards since it's a tropical. The plant was small when I got it and there were no flowers yet. I don't think the flowers are famous for beauty, they ARE for their exceptional fragrance and I'm excitedly awaiting to smell them when the time comes. I've been away from Lahore so don't really know for sure how it's doing but will get back to you on this.

Fragrance is what i am looking for. This vine is blooming in lawrence garden right now and i captured its flower pictures today but sadly flowers were not fragrant in the noon. I intend to buy this vine in bloom stage, available from various nurseries of lahore.

I got it from a friend in Multan. I wonder why the flowers were not fragrant! That would be just too bad since there are a lot more better looking vines out there.
