You're right, it does look pretty good next to the NGA logo.

I grew it one year in 2010. It's suppose to be fragrant at night (according to the database info), but at time I didn't know and/or forgot and didn't get around to smell the flowers that year.

This was the pic that I made the banner from. I turned it around from right to left.



In 2010 and a couple of years before and after that year, High Country Gardens sold "container gardens". They had a few plants in each (their choosing) that were sent to be added to containers at your home in your own container. They sent a diagram (to show where each plant was suppose to go in a certain size container) and the plants. In 2010, I picked two sets, as shown in these pics. Both had the Night Blooming Jasmine (Cestrum 'Orange Peel') and Agastache mexicana Acapulco® Salmon & Pink , but different salvias and possibly other plants were in each set.

Here are some other pics that showed Night Blooming Jasmine (Cestrum 'Orange Peel') in one or both containers. These were all taken early June 2010. I'll check and see if I took some later that summer or in the fall that year.

I'm think that was the only year I got these container gardens from them. I'd forgotten about it til now.
