This is a local wild flower. Because it is scented, it is often planted in gardens, parks and roadside. It can reach the height of about 10 meters. Plants that are marcotted and potted remain small and rarely reach the height of 2 meters. It is also called Yiang-yiang. This plant belongs to the same family as the Suger Apple or Sweet Sop.
