Cestrum is a genus of - depending on authority - 150-250 species of flowering plants in the family Solanaceae. They are native to warm temperate to tropical regions of the Americas. They are colloquially known as cestrums or jessamines (from "jasmine", due to their fragrant flowers).
All parts of the plants are toxic, causing severe gastroenteritis if eaten. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cestrum]
