Identification Help: Plant from rare collection with no tag ..help me ..

[Sk8er Dude]

Please help me I.D. this plant. It is one of my favorite plants. The leaves are
very cool and the small flowers have a slight smell of coconut or a gardenia. It
is in a pot and about 5-6 feet in height. Where the petiole joins the stem there is a
blue/purpleish hue. The flowers apear in small clusters at the top of the plant on this
years growth. The collection was desert trees and cacti so maybe that will help?
Thanks for any of your time. Hoping the flowers will make some viable seed.

p.s. first time posting pics so I hope it works
