The rich, sweet fragrance which emanates from the 1" single blooms will intoxicate the senses and delight one's spirit. Blooming spring through fall in temperate areas and an ever- bloomer in southern climates, this robust vine makes a fine potted specimen when trained on a trellis or stake. More vigorous than the double form, this jasmine grows quickly and has a strong resilient root system.

Tips for Success:

Remember, they are warm, lowland tropical plants and need a warm root system. The most vigorous is ‘Maid of Orleans.’ Slower growing varieties are ‘Flore Plena’ and ‘Grand Duke.’

• Use clay pots to maintain healthy roots.

• Bring soil to visual dryness between waterings.

• Occasionally bring to a slight wilt between waterings.

• Moderate amounts of fertilizer, not heavy feeders.

• Stop feeding in winter.

• All respond well to pruning; best not to prune in winter when growth is slow.
