Locally known as Water Jasmine, Sui Mui or Jelati. Wrightia is the most commonly plant used for bonsai. When it blooms or bears flowers - well.... can be a source of natural perfume!!If you are wondering how it looks like.... then let me show you the pictures which are taken from my family's very own home garden.......
This picture shows a fully-grown Wrightia bearing flowers.
To show you how a 'fully-bloomed' Wrightia looks like, well..... here it comes.......
If you are interested to know further..... aha.... during every Chinese New Year it's flowers changes colour. We used to take photo with this Wrightia every CNY, after it changes colour...... what do you think??? beautiful????
I think you're all too smart to be tricked by me.... haha! The plant is of course Wrightia. Usually my husband will look around in our garden to get one which have many beautiful branches, that is few days before CNY. Then he will pluck off all it's leaves, finally put the fake flowers onto it's branches (big and small). This is just to resemble the Lunar New Year..... SMART haaah!
