Description
'Trachelospermum Star of Toscana' also called star jasmine because of its soft yellow, star-shaped flowers. It is a Mediterranean evergreen climber and hardy to -10?C. The exuberant flowering period is from early June to late August, during this period the flowers spread a wonderfully sweet scent. The climber has oval, dark green leaves and needs support from a climbing frame or fence to grow well. The newly sprouting branches of this star jasmine curl up beautifully along a wire mesh or fence. The best place is sunny to semi-shade and out of the full wind. The star jasmine can be planted in the open ground in normal nutrient-rich soil. The star jasmine also grows well in a large pot on the terrace or balcony.
