Plant Profile

Trachelospermum jasminoides (Star Jasmine)

Although slow to get started, confederate jasmine is well worth the wait .Eventually rather vigorous, this twining woody vine has small, shiny, dark green leaves which provide a very dense screen or cover. The intensely fragrant , pure white, flowers abundantly produced in April and May, extend well beyond the leaves. Confederate jasmine is ideal for training across the top of a doorway or on a trellis next to a porch where its fragrance can be easily appreciated. It can also be used to cover light posts, fences, or tree trunk Leaves turn red or yellow when soil condition is nor correct, once estabilshed no water need during summer time,
