Frangipani/Chaafa

Chaafa or Frangipani is a tropical flowering plant. Frangipani trees can be up to 8 feet tall, but are also found in dwarf varieties. Flowers of this tree appear at the end of the branches and can be found in various shades of pink, a combination of white and yellow, and various shades of orange and yellow. The smell of these flowers is very pleasant and can be experienced at their best during the night when the smell is heightened to attract moths that pollinate them.
