Characteristics of a plant called cestrum nocturnum (or night blooming jasmine)?

I want to plant night blooming jasmine; but my current back/side yards are mostly shade with some afternoon sun. Front patio area has morning sun with a strip of hot afternoon sun and lots of shade.

This particular plant can take full or partial sun. I'd place it wherever you have the room for it.





It grows fast, and the smell on large bushes can be overpowering on some summer evenings. I still love the smell of it though, and it's a wonderful plant to have!





If it gets too large for your area, go ahead and trim it, as it will replce bloom heads fairly quickly in the growing months.
