This woody, vining shrub is an absolute delight in late spring and early summer when clusters of sweet-smelling, snow white, star shaped appear amongst its glossy, dark green foliage.

It can reach great heights and widths when trained as a and given some structural support, and because it’s evergreen it makes a nice privacy screen when grown this way. However, it’s just as easy to grow star jasmine as a 2 foot tall, spreading groundcover or a low, wide shrub where no height is needed. Since it only blooms on the previous year’s wood, any heavy pruning should be done soon after flowering in late spring.

Lydia says: Tips can be pinched back for

shaping any time of year, but be sure to wear gloves if the milky sap irritates your skin.
