Kemuning- Murraya paniculata
I’ve been meaning to ask the readers of LamanHati about the name of this flowering plant since September..huhu! But due to my hectic schedule, I keep on neglecting to update this blog until last week when I bought Laman Impiana Nov/Dec07 edition and found the name of this plant.
So here is Kemuning - Murraya paniculata. I bought it at Taman Warisan, Putrajaya together with a few other plants and I have been waiting for it to start flowering. Until finally in early September this year I see that it’s going to produce flower that makes me wonder what’s the name of this plant.
Of course when I bought it, the nursery owner already informed me but with so many plants bought at the time, I tend to forget.
If you never see how a Kemuning flower looks like, have a closer look here. It is so fragrant even the ants like it..heh! The flowers did not last that long so when I snapped this picture, this is the only flower that was still intact on the plant.

I think if there are too many the intense fragrant would be too much to bear. In my case I only have one plant and it took ages to start flowering..heh! So I guess I could say that I enjoy the scent while it lasts.

Found its other name on the Internet : Lakeview Jasmine, Orange Jessamine, Chinese Box ‘Lakeview’. One of the pictures they share seems to show the flowers blooming in clusters.
