    Hi all... was wondering if you could help me ID this tree. I have searched, my husband has searched, we've asked my father in law and aunt in law (both know their plants pretty well) and we just cannot come up with anything! This was here when I moved in. I relocated it because the people here before us (rental) did not know how to scape so its growth was slowed and it didn't bloom until about a week ago or so.

    Here is a shot of the whole plant:

    and here are the blooms and they are fragrant:

    Thanks for any help you can give me!

    Clerodendrum trichotomum would be my guess. Check leaves to see if they smell like peanut butter.
