The beautiful Stephanotis plant has white waxy trumpets about two inches long with a delicately pleasant fragrance. Although a native of Madagascar Jasmine, the fragrance captivated the native Hawaiians and they adopted this plant very quickly as a lei flower and especially as a wedding bouquet flower. That's why the Hawaiian name is Pua Male or "marry flower". This plant has a woody vine and the leaves are thick and glossy, but it is the fragrance that is treasured.
