A garden flower photo

Another Goan photo, does anyone recognise this? Is it a relative of anything here in the UK? It was a bush about 10feet tall.

Pottygardener I agree with Marguerite on this one - have seen it here. We often call it the pink jasmine because it has a fragrance like a jasmine, but it is quisqualis indica - the rangoon creeper. It has been known to grow over 50 feet high with support.

Bernieh, I thought it looked and smelled like jasmine, so interesting that you do sometimes call it that!
