'Starry Starry Summer Scent' Jasmine
Jasminum x stephanense
- Beautiful, delicate and highly fragrant pink and white starry flowers (plus mid green foliage) on climbing stems
- Also known as 'Ganmin 1701', this jasmine's stellate, bicolour flowers appear between June and August, releasing a bold perfume that smells particularly delightful in the evenings and at night
- A strong deciduous climber, 'Starry Starry Summer Scent' can easily be trained and will quickly cover drab vertical surfaces like shed walls or tired fences. It can also be grown up an obelisk or trellis in beds and large containers
- This plant is hardy, easy to care for and will add oodles of visual impact to your garden
- Pollinators typically like jasmine plants, and this variety is no exception! Its strong aroma draws butterflies, bees and birds to its flowers crammed full of nectar
- 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
