The Story Behind the Flower
Jasmine has been treasured for centuries for its unmistakable fragrance, with its delicate blossoms becoming part of tea, perfumery and botanical traditions across many cultures.
The small flowers are particularly prized for their intensely aromatic character. Once carefully dried, Jasmine Flowers retain a beautifully delicate appearance and a distinctive floral fragrance that makes even a small amount noticeable in a botanical blend.
When infused, Jasmine brings a fragrant, floral character to the cup. The dried flowers can be explored on their own or combined with teas, herbs and other flowers to add another aromatic layer to loose-leaf blends.
At Flowers from my Meadow, we love Jasmine for the remarkable fragrance held within such a delicate flower. Our dried Jasmine Flowers are carefully selected and packed to preserve their natural aroma, colour and botanical character — ready for beautiful blends and simple botanical rituals.

GOOD TO KNOW
Questions About Jasmine Flowers
Everything you need to know about our dried Jasmine Flowers, from their botanical identity and celebrated fragrance to preparation, blending and storage.
-
Our Jasmine Flowers are dried blossoms of Jasminum sambac, commonly known as Jasmine or Arabian Jasmine, a fragrant flowering plant belonging to the Oleaceae family. The flowers are recognised for their distinctive sweet floral aroma and long history within tea and aromatic traditions.
-
The flower buds and blossoms are the parts gathered and dried for botanical preparations. Fresh Jasmine flowers are white, while drying naturally changes their appearance to shades of cream and pale yellow.
-
Jasmine Flowers create a light, delicate and intensely floral botanical infusion. Their fragrance is particularly distinctive, giving the cup a sweet floral aroma without requiring additional flavouring.
-
Not necessarily. Pure Jasmine flower tea is an infusion made from the dried Jasmine blossoms themselves. Traditional Jasmine tea is commonly made by scenting true tea leaves — often green tea — with fresh Jasmine flowers. These products therefore contain tea leaves as well as Jasmine fragrance.
-
Jasmine's sweet floral fragrance pairs beautifully with Rose Petals and Chamomile Flowers. It can also be combined with green or white tea when creating your own Jasmine-style traditional tea blend.
-
Flowers from my Meadow offers dried Jasminum sambac flowers in a 20 g resealable kraft pouch, carefully packed as a pure and uncomplicated single botanical for Jasmine flower tea, loose-leaf blending and creative culinary preparations.
