This flowering shrub-tree is renown for its abundance of scent. Hymenosporum flavum is widespread from New Guinea to New South Wales, in Australia and can attain heights of 2-20 m, bearing clusters of flowers in different shades of white-to-yellow. It loves full sun and it is rather resistant to neglect. There is only one species in the genus Hymenosporum and it is nicknamed the Australian frangipani, for its (not too close) resemblance with plumerias, which are American plants in the same botanical family.
