Arrived overnight, looking exactly like the photos

Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.

Survived me. That's a big deal.

I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.

Beautiful plant, slightly smaller than expected

Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

About the Parijat Plant

The Parijat, scientifically known as Nyctanthes arbor-tristis, is a deciduous shrub or small tree that belongs to the Oleaceae family. It is commonly called Harsingar or night-flowering jasmine in India. The plant is renowned for its exquisite white and orange flowers that bloom exclusively at night, releasing a sweet, intoxicating fragrance that fills the surrounding area. By morning, these flowers fall, creating a beautiful carpet on the ground. This unique blooming pattern has made it a symbol of transient beauty in Indian culture and literature. The plant features dark green, serrated leaves and produces small, black fruit. It is considered a holy plant in Hinduism and is often offered to deities in temples. The Parijat is a hardy species that can grow up to 10 meters in height in its natural habitat but can be maintained as a shrub in home gardens. It is a popular choice for terrace gardens, courtyards, and large outdoor pots due to its manageable size and stunning visual appeal.

Light & Placement

The Parijat plant thrives in bright, direct sunlight and requires at least 5-6 hours of sun exposure daily for optimal flowering. It is an outdoor plant and should be placed in a location that receives ample sunlight throughout the day. Ideal spots include south-facing or west-facing balconies, terraces, or garden beds that get unobstructed sunlight. While it loves the sun, it can also tolerate partial shade, though flowering may be reduced. In extremely hot climates, especially during peak summer, providing some afternoon shade can prevent the leaves from scorching. The plant should be protected from strong, harsh winds which can damage the delicate flowers and foliage. When you receive your Parijat from gardengro, it's best to acclimatize it gradually to its new outdoor location to ensure it adapts well to the sunlight and environmental conditions.

Watering & Humidity

Proper watering is crucial for the health of your Parijat plant. The soil should be kept consistently moist, especially during the growing season from spring to autumn. Water the plant thoroughly whenever the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Ensure that the water drains out completely from the bottom of the pot to prevent water-logging, as the plant does not like sitting in water. During the hot summer months, you may need to water more frequently, possibly every other day, depending on the climate and soil type. Reduce watering during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down. The Parijat plant prefers moderate to high humidity levels, which is naturally available in most Indian climates. If you live in an arid region, misting the plant occasionally or placing it near a water source can help maintain the required humidity. Avoid wetting the flowers directly while watering, as this can cause them to wilt prematurely.

Vastu & Symbolism

The Parijat plant holds deep cultural and religious significance in India. It is considered a sacred plant in Hinduism and is often associated with devotion, love, and purity. According to Hindu mythology, the Parijat is believed to be a celestial flower that originated from heaven and is associated with deities like Lord Krishna and Shiva. It is commonly used in religious ceremonies, temple offerings, and as a garland for worship. The plant's night-blooming nature is often seen as a metaphor for divine beauty that is hidden during the day and revealed at night. In Vastu Shastra, the Paryat is considered an auspicious plant that can bring positive energy and peace to a home. It is often recommended for planting in the east or northeast direction of a garden to attract positive vibrations. The sweet fragrance of its flowers is believed to purify the air and create a serene and spiritual atmosphere in the surroundings.

Care steps

  1. Choose a Sunny Spot. Place your Parijat plant in an outdoor area that receives at least 5-6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and flowering.
  2. Water Regularly. Keep the soil consistently moist by watering thoroughly when the top inch feels dry, ensuring proper drainage to prevent water-logging.
  3. Fertilize Monthly. Feed your Parijat plant with a balanced fertilizer or organic compost like vermicompost every month during the growing season to support healthy foliage and abundant blooms.
  4. Prune After Flowering. Lightly prune the plant after the flowering season to remove dead branches and encourage bushier growth and more flowers in the next cycle.
  5. Repot When Needed. Transplant your Parijat to a larger pot when it outgrows its current container, ideally in early spring, using a well-draining acidic soil mix.
