Jasminum angulata

Post by treeman »

I made this up from nursery stock about 3 years ago (which explains the crappy base). It's a fragrant and pleasant little thing.
I have taken many cuttings of this species and they will have much more movement than this one.
I think it has good prospects!

That's really nice Mike. Looks like it flowers well even after trimming. I have a couple of Jasmine asiaticum that like to flower at the ends of new growth. Yours looks much better!
Regards,
Steven

One trick with these plants that flower on the end of long stems (crepe myrtle is another example) is that you let the shoot grow and when it is just coming into bud (no later) you cut it right back to a couple of nodes. It should then flower on the next shoots which will be shorter. It should be well fed prior to this of course.
