Carolina Jessamine, Gelsemium sempervirens, was adopted as South Carolina's flower 'way back in 1924--long before legislatures began arguing over what should be a state's official beverage (in South Carolina, it's milk) or dance (the Shag) or Opera (Porgy and Bess).
We concur that Carolina Jessamine was a splendid choice for the state's flower, and--like the official tree (Sabal Palmetto) and bird (Carolina Wren)--it's a symbol South Carolina doesn't have to share with any other state.
Curiously, we've never seen Ruby-throated Hummingbirds dining on Yellow Jessamine, even though when the hummers arrive in early April the vine blooms more prolifically than almost any other native species; perhaps the nectar is just too bitter for the average ruby-throat.

 Natchez Naturalist Newsletter:
On a sunny, balmy morning last Monday as I returned from the gardens the vine's first bright yellow flower of the year appeared on the forest floor before me. The flower was about 1.5 inch long (35 mm), shaped like a megaphone, and its brightness on the somber forest floor was as surprising as ever.
What it meant was that the flower before me already had spent its allotted time projecting into the cold spring air and sunlight, already had accomplished its job of attracting a pollinator, and already had been discarded, leaving an ovary to mature into a fruit.
This fallen blossom was like the calling card left by a friend who, because of an unanswered tap at a window deep in the night, steals away giggling, knowing how you'll bite your lip when you realize how once again you've missed the fragrance she might have been willing to share.
