Arabian Jasmine or Jasmine Maid of Orleans Plant is also known as Sampaguita. The national flower of the Philippines. Takes me back to when beauty was not always visual but in the aroma of the beholder. Sampa Kita means I promise you. This has been known to be a flower of divine hope and opens up at night. This beauty is known to have been imported into the Philippines in the 17th century from Himalayan areas and originally from India and is grown throughout India today.
