Jasminum adenophyllum, commonly known as the bluegrape jasmine, pinwheel jasmine, or princess jasmine, is a species of jasmine, belonging to the olive family.[4][5]

Distribution and habitat

The bluegrape jasmine is a relatively rare species of jasmine mostly found in parts of northeast India (especially Assam and Meghalaya), but also discovered in Laos, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam.[4][6][7][5]
