Description
The Carolina Jessamine is a fantastic climbing vine that brings loads of gorgeous blooms to your early spring landscape. This Jessamine produces golden-yellow, tubular blooms with a spectacular fragrance. These blooms begin appearing in late winter and continue into early spring. The foliage is emerald green and semi-evergreen in nature. This means that colder zones will see it experience a slight dormancy period where it loses some of its leaves. It gracefully climbs trellises, arbors, fences, and more without aggressively choking out its planting location. Alternatively, allow it to grow on the ground as a mounding groundcover. It’s capable of reaching 20 ft. L at maturity with many stems at its base. This selection is hardy from USDA Zones-7 to zones-9 and grows well in Full Sun to Partial Shade. It prefers rich soil with a slightly acidic pH and good drainage. Water your new plantings 2-times to 3-times per week for the first growing season. Fertilize in spring with a slow-release, balanced fertilizer. These Carolina Jessamine Vines are well-established in a 2.5 qt. (#1) pot. They will be roughly 10 in. to 14 in. L and growing on a stake. They are not guaranteed to be in bloom on arrival.
