Answer 2

G,day mate. I remember shrimp plants from years ago when I was an apprentice nurseryman. It just took me a while to get the spelling correct to locate a photo for you. Is this it?? If so then it's name is Beloperone guttata. Sorry don't know where you can get one because I'm in Australia.

Here's what I found in an online store; just click the link below and scroll down till you find it- it is a variety of jasmine, and "always in bloom".

I copied and pasted this entry below. Also see they have live, real-person help via phone. Hope this is helpful!
