Of the week Jasminum polyanthum

-

Enjoy the delicious scent of jasmine with this indoor plant.

It looks good all year with its dark evergreen foliage, but in late February it is covered in lots of white, highly fragrant jasmine flowers.

It’s a twining climber so can be grown up a support. Lovely in a window or conservato­ry, it doesn’t like to be baked so filtered light is best.

Trim where necessary after flowering if it’s overcrowde­d. Feed during growing season with a fortnightl­y liquid feed.

It can be brought outside to a patio or balcony in summer.
