TRACHELOSPERMUM
JASMINOIDES
Confederate Jasmine
Trachelospermum jasminoides is a hardy mid size vine that
produces many fragrant flowers during the spring. In many
situations it can be used as a ground cover. It grows anywhere
from full sun to bright shade but it will flower heavily
with more light. It will grow well in most well drained
locations
with average watering. They accept trimming very well and
can be kept compact enough for pot culture. Trimming should
be done in late winter or after the flowers are gone.
