Calotropis gigantea
It is a large shrub growing to 4 m tall. It has clusters of waxy flowers that are either white or lavender in colour. Each flower consists of five pointed petals and a small, elegant "crown" rising from the centre, which holds the stamens. The plant has oval, light green leaves and milky stem.
You have a gorgeous plant collection Coleen! Hope to see them in the Plant mission - http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8266....
