Jasmine (Jasminum polyanthum) is a genus of vines and shrubs in the Oleaceae (olive) family. It contains about 200 species[1] native to the warm temperate and tropical regions of Africa, Europe, and Asia.
Jasmine is widely cultivated due to the characteristic aroma of its flowers. The jasmine flower is either deciduous (meaning the leaves fall in autumn) or evergreen (meaning the leaves are green throughout the year).
