Trachelospermums are known as "Jasmines" due to their similar looking flowers, but they are not related to true Jasmines, and have a stronger, sweeter scent.

These reliable, low maintenance plants are some of the most popular evergreen climbers for covering fences and walls, with lush, attractive foliage, and fragrant flowers. 

• In full sun, they flower profusely, filling the area with jasmine-like aroma
• Sun also encourages their leaves to change colour in Winter to an attractive burgundy red
• In the shade, they grow well but flower later

They are moderately vigorous, so mature Trachelospermum plants only need one tidying trim a year to shave off whippy new growth in Spring.

Young plants need trying into supports, once they are growing away, simply slip stray new growth behind the wires, trellis etc, and it will twine onto it. 

Sausage Vines, another lush evergreen climber, go well with Trachelospermums: between the two you get close to six months of delicious floral aromas.

What's the difference between Asiatic and Star Trachelospermum?

Star Jasmine, Trachelospermum jasminoides, has better flowers in larger clusters, and the leaves are a bit brighter and glossier in Spring and Summer.   

Asiatic Jasmine, Trachelospermum asiaticum, flowers a fortnight earlier, and has better leaf colour in Winter. 

Gardeners report that in the UK's coldest regions, it performs best, especially for Winter colour.

According to the RHS, both are hardiness rated H4, "hardy through most of the UK (-10 to -5)". 

From our experience with potted plants, we are certain should be H5, down to at least -15C.

Both species hold the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
