Jasminum tortuosum (Twisted Jasmine) - This South African evergreen vine has groups of three dark green glossy linear leaflets and can scramble to 25 feet. The summer-blooming, 1 inch wide white flowers appear in clusters at the ends of the branches and have a delightful citrus fragrance that is much more delicate than some of the heavy fragrances of the other Jasmines. It does best in sun with regular watering and is hardy to about 25 degrees F.
