Jasminum nudiflorum

Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl. (China) – A very rare escape from cultivation. Apparently first documented in 2005 when it was found on the ruins (old walls) of an archaeological site in Ename (Oudenaarde), probably introduced by berry-eating birds. Since then also recorded in Mol in 2012 and Diest (old walls of the Citadel) in 2015.
