Growing notes
- Plant against a sheltered wall in mild climates or under glass elsewhere — flowers February–April, providing a critical late-winter fragrance
- Strongly fragrant during the day — unusual for jasmine, which usually peaks in the evening
- Vigorous — provide stout support, can reach 5 m
- Frost-tender — best in zone 9 and warmer outdoors
- Not reliably hardy outdoors in Canada — Canadian zone values shown represent the system maximum and do not imply garden cultivation north of the warmest coastal pockets.
