You can request
a “Hold Order” for Hardy Perennials and we will ship them
when it’s planting time in your zone. Otherwise, Hardy
Perennials can be kept in a cool or cold spot like an unheated
garage, cool cellar or outbuilding. Cover the pot and soil
with insulating material (burlap, clean rags, newspaper) and
check the soil every 2-3 weeks to make sure it doesn’t dry
out completely. In the spring, plant as soon as the ground
is open and no longer frozen. Dormant plants can endure
freezing temperatures in the spring as long as the plant
remains dormant without any green buds.
Jasmine ‘Grand Duke of Tuscany’ (Jasminum sambac)
With a rich heavenly fragrance, the thick 1" fully double white blooms emerge on the tips of its upright stems. The carnation-like blooms are much revered throughout Asia where a perfumed drink is made by soaking the flower overnight in water. A slow growing cultivar that loves a warm summer growing area.
Hardy to Zone 10 and higher for outdoors.
Full sun, grows to 1-3’ in container, minimum
temperature 60°, blooms in summer.
I got this plant around mid May and it is now the last week of September and she has gifted us with some 3-4 blooms this week. They smell heavenly and after about three days the flower turns bluish pink but still hang on the stem.
