Jasminum mesnyi (Primrose Jasmine)

Jasminum mesnyi (Primrose Jasmine) Details

Commonly known as the Primrose Jasmine, this 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. This Jasmine grows best in full sun on a well-drained, semi-sheltered site. It 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. We recommend regular trimming and planting it upwind to fill the home with fragrance.
