GENUS OVERVIEW / Cestrum
Cestrum is a genus of — depending on authority — 150-250 species of flowering plants in the family Solanaceae. They are native to warm temperate to tropical regions of the Americas, from the southernmost United States (Florida, Texas: day-blooming cestrum, C. diurnum) south to the Bío-Bío Region in central Chile (green cestrum, C. parqui). They are colloquially known as cestrums or jessamines (probably from the word "jasmine", due to their fragrant flowers, though they are not true jasmines.).
This source describes the genus, not this particular species or selection. Species-specific characteristics and growing requirements are not confirmed.
