I have two cuttings sitting in water right now along with two cuttings from the night blooming jasmine. Keeping my fingers crossed that they root!

I had never heard of this plant until we were at a neighbors house a couple of years ago and I kept smelling this wonderful perfume. When asked she told me she had just picked the plant up at Lowes! Unfortunately, Lowes had sold out of them by the time I got out there. A week later I was cruising the local nurseries to see what I just could not live without when my nose caught the smell of the almond bush! I bought one right then and there. The next week, I had to go back to get another one for my sister! Smiling Love the scent of this pretty flowered bush!
