Star Jasmine thrives in full sun to partial shade, performing best in well-drained, fertile soil enriched with organic matter. It adapts well to a variety of soil types, including sandy, loamy, and clay soils. Hardy and drought-tolerant once established, it is suitable for temperate, subtropical, and tropical climates and can withstand light frost.
Growth
This moderately fast-growing climber can reach a height of 6–10 meters and a spread of 2–3 meters when grown on a support structure. Its dense foliage and profuse, fragrant flowers make it an excellent choice for climbing, screening, or cascading over walls or fences.
Planting Guide
Trachelospermum jasminoides grows best in well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Plant year round, spacing plants about 1 meter apart for a dense screen or ground cover. For container planting, use a high-quality potting mix, and position the container in a sunny or semi-shaded location. Water thoroughly after planting, and mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Plant Care
Water regularly during the establishment phase, then reduce watering, as Star Jasmine is drought-tolerant once mature. Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in spring to encourage healthy growth and prolific flowering. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain its shape and remove spent blooms. Mulching around the base helps retain soil moisture and regulate temperature.
