Star Jasmine bears masses of beautifully scented white flowers on slender trailing or climbing stems from early spring to mid-summer. Dark green glossy foliage adds to the beauty of this non-invasive climber.
Uses
Star Jasmine is an ideal climber for trellises or wires, with tendril-like growth that winds and twines around supports. It can also be mass planted as a ground cover, where regular trimming helps it form dense, dark green foliage beds, ideal for under trees and along borders.
Plant Care
A trim in late winter and again after flowering is all that is needed to keep this plant in shape. Trachelospermum will grow happily in sun or shade in most soil conditions. Water well over dry summer months. An early spring application of a good organic fertiliser will keep the foliage lush and help prolong the flowering period.
