Description
Jasmine polyanthum, commonly known as pink jasmine, is a vigorous, evergreen climber prized for its highly fragrant flowers. Native to China, this fast-growing vine is a favorite for covering trellises, fences, and pergolas, adding a touch of elegance and a delightful scent to any garden. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil.
During late winter and early spring, Jasmine polyanthum bursts into bloom, producing clusters of star-shaped, white flowers that emerge from deep pink buds. The sweet fragrance is strongest in the evening, making it an excellent choice near patios or entryways where the scent can be fully appreciated. The dark green, glossy leaves provide an attractive backdrop, keeping the plant visually appealing even when not in bloom.
This jasmine variety is a vigorous climber, capable of reaching up to 600 cm in height with support. It can also be grown as a trailing or cascading plant in hanging baskets. While it is relatively low-maintenance, occasional pruning helps control its growth and encourages more blooms. It is best suited for mild climates but can tolerate light frosts. In colder regions, it can be grown in containers and moved indoors during winter.
Ideal for adding a romantic and exotic feel to gardens, Jasmine polyanthum is perfect for those who love fragrant plants. With its rapid growth, lush foliage, and intoxicating scent, it is a standout choice for gardeners and plant enthusiasts alike.
