Asiatic Jasmine 'Snow N Summer'
6” ‘SNOW N SUMMER’ ASIATIC JASMINE VINE HANGING BASKET
Dwarf Confederate Jasmine ‘Snow N Summer’; Japanese Star Jasmine ‘Snow N Summer’
Trachelospermum asiaticum
USDA Zones 7-9
Native to Japan & Korea, this lush, beautifully variegated vine is a woody evergreen that is grown mostly for its awesome foliage, & does well in containers & in-ground gardens. New leaves develop pink & turn to white & emerald green as they age & mature, so you’ll always have a brilliant mix of the 3 colors. During the summer they produce small, extremely fragrant, cream colored flowers. In warm weather climates this Asiatic Jasmine produces numerous blooms. It’s the perfect ground cover to brighten up any shady spot in your garden. It can be trained up a trellis or spread across a fence as a vine, or cascading out of containers.
*While the pictures in the listing are of a 4" plant, these were taken when we first listed the vine & the ones selected for sale have been transplanted into a 6" hanging basket.
FOR SALE PLANTS have been in the shade & have reverted to mostly solid green. Once the plants are in full sun the foliage will go back to the pink variegation.
