Jasminum abyssinicum is a species of jasmine native to Africa from Ethiopia to KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It is a strong to slender woody climber in high-altitude montane forests, with stems that can be up to 13 cm in diameter. The leaves are opposite, trifoliolate, with broadly ovate leaflets and a distinct driptip. The flowers are white, tinged with pink on the outside, sweetly scented with a corolla with 5 or sometimes 6 elliptic lobes. The fruits are a single- or bi-lobed berry 7 mm long, fleshy, and glossy black. The Maasai people of Kenya use this plant as a medicinal remedy for wounds and in sheep, it is traditionally used as a treatment for the parasitic nematode Hemonchus contortus. The name 'Jasminum' is a Latinized form of the Arabic word, 'yasemin' for sweetly scented plants.
