Care Information
Follow a regular watering schedule during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer. Provide support such as a trellis or arbor. Prune annually to control size. Pruning time: fall after flowering.
Design Ideas
A most popular Jasmine, with its abundant fragrant flowers and willingness to withstand mild frosts. Use to dress up old fences, train over gateways and up posts, columns and trellage. Train on an arbor, where light lacy quality offers filtered sun below. Particularly lovely on walls bearing grid trellis and when draped over windows so the fragrance wafts inside.
