Thanks everyone I had a thought it was a stephanotis. It has a lovely perfume and yes it does climb over a wire frame. It has lots of new shoots it must like its position in the conservatory. Watered regularly and fed occcasionally Cheers all Su x

Looks like a type of Jasmine. Does it have a sweet scent ? If so then I think it's a jasmine.

Hi Suziebabe
Sorry to disagree with Blodyn but I believe it is a Hoya as the leaves are also thick and waxy Should also have a sweet scent

I think it's a trachelospermum jasminoides (spelling??) Is it a climber? Scented flowers

I don't think so - the flowers when they open sort of 'untwirl' on mine. Also the leaves are much glossier. Maybe we need to know if this is actually a houseplant or an outdoors one??? Over to you, Suzie.

I'm not sure of the actual name but this looks like a flower used in the floral trade for wedding bouquets called Stephanotis. I think it is used because it looks like traditional orange blossoms but lasts a lot longer.

I agree it is Stephanotis ( Brides Breath) I used to use it Wedding Bouquet's when I was in the florist trade.

I think you will find it is an indoor plant. It probably has a strong perfume and it is called Stephanotis.It needs to be trained on a frame or wire of some sort.
