The henna flower is delicate, small, and four-petaled, a 2 mm calyx tube with 3 mm spreading lobes and oval petals with a slew of slender and elongated antennae protruding from the center. The red, rose, and white varieties of the blossom, which also blooms in yellow, cream, and pink, emanate a sweet and seductive aroma evocative of jasmine, rose, and mignonette; therefore the name Jamaica Mignonette, as henna is known in the West Indies.
