This was growing Mounts Botanical Gardens at West Palm Beach and I
thought it was beautiful. For size comparison see my hand. Would it
be possible to grow or is it a hot place tree/shrub which maybe could
survive in a heated garden room, which I don't have, yet.

Many thanks-

Cestrum nocturnum is another
stunner in a sunny garden because it releases a fabulous scent at
night.

But some do have a revolting smell in the daytime, notably Cestrum
parqui.

I don't find it *that* strong a scent - shall have to go and inspect it now!
