'Pink Showers' Asiatic Jasmine
Trachelospermum asiaticum
- An explosion of star shaped, pastel pink and golden yellow flowers carpet vigorously climbing stems and forest green, ovate foliage
- Often known as the Asian star jasmine, the flowers of this plant produce a gorgeous, alluring jasmine fragrance when they bloom between May and September - the scent is typically stronger later in the day, making it a fabulous addition when placed near seating areas for evening summer socialising
- A fabulous plant to train up walls, fences, pergolas, arbours or trellises
- Evergreen foliage ensures interest throughout the year, and can help transform dull, uninspired vertical surfaces into truly lush, verdant environments
- Low maintenance and both easy and fast growing, this perennial can be reliably called upon to produce masses of pink flowers every year
- With flowers rich in pollen and nectar, 'Pink Showers' will attract plenty of pollinators like bees and butterflies to your garden
- 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
