Jasminum Polyanthum Vs Star Jasmine
Jasminum polyanthum
Jasminum polyanthum, commonly known as Pink Jasmine, is a climber that produces masses of beautiful, pink and white, highly scented flowers through spring and summer. It features rich, green leaves on a densely growing vine. This evergreen is very vigorous and can grow up to 6 m tall and the same wide when it has something to climb. Jasminum polyanthum is ideal for growing on a fence and looks spectacular when grown over an archway or on a trellis. It is well suited to cottage gardens and for planting around outdoor living areas where it should be positioned upwind so the fragrance can be enjoyed.

Trachelospermum jasminoides
Trachelospermum jasminoides, commonly known as Star Jasmine or Confederate Jasmine, is an evergreen climber that carries dense and lush, dark green leaves which are glossy and serve as a lovely backdrop to the masses of fragrant, cream-white flowers through spring and summer. With a support structure, Trachelospermum jasminoides can grow to 8 m in length but it is usually contained with trimming. More commonly it will spread across the ground to about 50 cm tall and 2-3 m wide. It is commonly used as a hardy groundcover, trained on a trellis or the like, planted so it can spill over a wall, included in outdoor living areas such as around a pool, or used in cottage or “white” gardens.
