Why Choose Trachelospermum asiaticum for Your Garden?
Trachelospermum asiaticum is a superb choice if you’re after an evergreen climber or trail down a pot with good shade tolerance, adaptable growth, and year-round foliage interest. It’s perfect for:
Let it fall down a pot to add wonderful scent to your patio
Spilling over low walls, planters, or embankments
Climbing up trellises, fences, or pergolas in part-shaded gardens
Creating a low-maintenance evergreen screen or green carpet
Adding texture and interest to patios, urban spaces, or courtyards
While the flowers are less prominent than Star Jasmine, Trachelospermum asiaticum shines with its versatility, drought tolerance once established, and lush foliage that looks good all year round.

Growing Tips
Best Position
Asian Jasmine thrives in a sheltered position with partial shade to full sun. It’s especially useful in areas where light levels are lower, such as north or east-facing spaces.
Soil Preparation
Plant in moist, well-drained soil. While it prefers fertile soil, it’s less fussy than many climbers and copes well with a range of soil types. Work in compost or leaf mould before planting.
Support & Training
Provide a trellis or support if growing vertically. Alternatively, allow it to trail or sprawl as dense groundcover—it’s excellent at suppressing weeds once established.
Pruning
Very little pruning is needed. Trim lightly in late summer to control spread or maintain shape. It responds well to cutting back if it becomes too vigorous.
Winter Care
Generally hardy in mild UK areas, but in colder or exposed sites, offer protection from harsh winds and prolonged frosts. Container-grown plants can be moved to sheltered positions in winter.
