When did it flower Nhu?
I have such a plant from Silver hill as seed of M jasminiflora. It is
evergreen and hates arid conditions, also sweetly scented. There is also M
wittbergensis which I only know as very small seedlings and perhaps some
other summer growing species from the Drakensberg mountains which I have a
few young seedlings From Cameron McMasters seed.
There is a picture of my plants of M 'jasminiflora' here as well as one of
M jasminiflora which I assume is the correctly named

Hi everyone,
In March 2008, I got a packet of seeds from Silverhill as a Massonia
marginata from the Roggeveld. It is not M. marginata, It has a lovely
smell, unlike other massonias,
but perhaps somewhat like M. jasminiflora. I can't even place this in a
genus. If you have any idea what it may be (or a new species?) please
discuss!
Here are the photos. You should be able to right click on the photos to see
