Star Jasmine (Trachelospermum jasminoides) is a versatile, evergreen climber renowned for its glossy green leaves and masses of highly fragrant white flowers in summer. In New Zealand, it thrives in full sun or partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. It’s perfect for covering fences, walls, or pergolas, and can also be used as a groundcover or in containers. Star Jasmine is low-maintenance, frost-tolerant once established, and ideal for adding year-round structure and sweet perfume to NZ gardens.

Jasminum mesnyi, commonly known as Primrose Jasmine or Japanese Jasmine, is a scrambling shrub with amazing flowers and fragrance. It features dark green leaves held somewhat densely on sprawling stems. The foliage is adorned with sweetly fragrant, yellow flowers in late winter and spring. It typically grows to 70 cm tall and 3 m wide, but it can be trained along a fence or trellis if desired. Jasminum mesnyi is ideal for training on a fence and looks spectacular when grown over an archway or on a trellis. It is equally perfect for growing as a contained or trailing shrub where it can spill over a retaining wall or the like, and is well suited to cottage and modern gardens.
