Winter Jasmine

Winter Jasmine is a classic garden shrub that is unique for blooming through the winter months, producing flushes of golden yellow blooms during every warm spell. It is often in bloom from November to February. It forms a trailing and arching shrub that will cover 10 to 15 feet in all directions, and it can be trained up a wall or trellis, or left as a sprawling ground cover. It is especially attractive spilling over retaining walls or cascading down slopes.

• Showy bright-yellow flowers through the winter months
• Blooms on the bare branches, with green summer leaves
• Excellent wall or trellis plant for winter interest
• Great ground cover or trailer over retaining walls
• Tough, reliable and easy to grow – a heritage plant

Full sun gives the most blooms on the Winter Jasmine, but it will grow happily in shade, even tolerating deep full shade. It grows in all well-drained soils, including heavy clays and urban soils. It is generally pest and disease free and very easy to care for. It’s drought resistant once established, and can be left to grow naturally or pruned in early spring to control the growth, especially when grown as a vine.
