Common Jasmine
Jasminum officinale
- A profusion of sweetly scented pure white star-like flowers
- Fill your garden with the sweetest perfume in all of nature
- A deciduous perennial that will bear new leaves every spring
- Fantastic plant to climb up a wall, pole, or doorway
- RHS Certified 'Plant for Pollinators'
- Flowers all summer long from June to August
- Long vigorous growth makes it perfect for covering structures
- Fully Hardy–can withstand even the harshest of British winters
- Please Note: Our climbers are pruned back each winter, and some during the summer, so you may find at certain times of year they do not cover the whole 90cm cane. This is intentional to ensure the best growth when you plant out
