Do you have Artabotrys hexapetalus which is a woody climber, or Cananga odorata which is a tree?

Both need to be mature before they produce flowers.

The Artabotrys will need support and trimming to train it into a bush. The Cananga will need to be trimmed to maintain it as a bush, so it does not get too large.

They will need large pots to mature in your area, and do best in full Sun.

Here is Artabotrys hexapetalus.
