Why does the jasmine bloom only at night? - Times of India (2024)

Like all other flowering plants, jasmine also produces a flower-inducing hormone in its leaves when exposed to bright sunlight. This hormone is called florigen (flower-generating hormone) and it migrates from the leaves to flowering shoots during the day. It accumulates in the flowering shoots of the jasmine plant and induces flowering during the night.
