The beautiful and fragrant Star Jasmine Bush is the perfect addition to any landscape. Trachelospermum jasminoides is a versatile shrub for those looking to add beauty and charm to their outdoor space. Star Jasmine is also available as a staked vine or espalier trellis.
Grown naturally, Star Jasmine Bush is an evergreen woody vine with twining stems that can be pruned into a shrub. Profuse clusters of star-shaped, fragrant white flowers bloom from spring through fall. Prune regularly to maintain a tidy, small shrub that looks best along walkways or borders. Prune less for a natural, trailing appearance that's perfect for spilling over raised beds, walls, or containers. Plant near a patio or entryway to enjoy its delightful fragrance.

Other facts:

How big does the Star Jasmine Bush grow?
When grown as a bush, it typically reaches 3 to 4 feet tall and wide. With support, it can climb 10 to 15 feet, but it can be kept neatly rounded with light pruning.
When does it bloom and what do the flowers look like?
It blooms in late spring and early summer with clusters of star-shaped white flowers that fill the air with a sweet, rich fragrance.
What kind of light and soil does it prefer?
Full sun to partial shade works best. It thrives in well-drained soil and tolerates most types, though richer soil encourages fuller growth.
How do I maintain the Star Jasmine as a bush instead of a vine?
Prune lightly after flowering to shape and control size. Frequent trimming encourages denser, bushier growth and prevents it from climbing everything in sight.
