Jasmine or Jessamine, common name applied to plants of two genera: true jasmines and false jasmines. The true jasmines are a genus of shrubs and climbing plants, including about 450 species, most of which are native to the Old World tropical regions. The salver-shaped jasmine flower has a five- or eight-lobed calyx, five- or eight-lobed corolla, two stamens, and a solitary pistil. The fruit is a two-lobed berry. The common jasmine is native to western China. It is a tall climbing plant, bearing pinnate leaves and fragrant white flowers. Spanish or Catalonian jasmine is a bushy shrub, possibly native to Arabia, bearing white flowers flecked with pink. Both species are used in the perfume industry. Arabian or Zambuc jasmine is a white-flowered climbing plant, native to Asia. It is the source of mohle flowers.
