Is it me, or is the photo upside down?

Hello eloopj,
Those are beautiful blooms. What state do you live in? I live in Indiana. What is the store name for the plant, or do you know if there is a similar one to it for my zone?

Thanks.

I purchased two 1-gallon plants in late Spring with a few blooms on each. I located it where it would receive mid-day and afternoon sun in zone 9 North Florida. The blooms fell off within a few days. BUT, the plants have climbed the trellis to my roof almost twice over now (August) and I've never seen so much as a hint of a blossom. Any advice?

agourmet22: I just bought 2 1 gallon plants from Home Depot last night, they only had a few left though (out in Gig Harbor, WA), sold under Carolina Jessamine.. Hope that helps, I'm looking forward to seeing how this does alternated with Star Jasmine along a trellis I've just put together, hoping it does half as well as everyone elses on this forum!
