Jasminum angulare (South African Jasmine) - A slow growing evergreen scrambling shrub or vine native to coastal areas from Eastern Cape to Natal, South Africa with dark green leaves composed of three 3/4 inch long by 3/8 inch wide leaflets. If given support this vine can grow to 15-20 feet tall by 8 feet wide. From early summer into fall are produced the 1 1/4 inch wide star-shaped white flowers, which are sweetly but delicately fragrant and held in clusters of 3 to 7 flowers that face up. Plant in full sun to light shade. Water regularly. A bit tender and best in near frost-free gardens but can handle a few degrees below freezing without damage. Good used as a vine, groundcover, small shrub or espalier. Flowers are good in arrangements.
This information is based on research conducted about this plant in our nursery library and from reliable online sources. We also take into consideration observations of it in our nursery of crops, as well as of plants growing in the nursery's garden and those in other gardens we have visited. We will incorporate comments received from others and welcome getting feedback from anyone who may have additional information, particularly if it includes cultural information that would aid others in growing Jasminum angulare. |
