Red Jasmine in the GardenTags plant encyclopedia

Jasminum beesianum

 

Red Jasmine

Jasmine (taxonomic name Jasminum) is a genus native to tropical and warm temperate regions. They are widely cultivated for the very fine fragrance of their flowers. They are commonly grown in gardens, as a house plant, and as a supply of cut flowers. J.beesianum sports delicate pink trumpets with a heavenly scent which erupt into bloom from midsummer. The semi-evergreen foliage makes the perfect backdrop for its shiny, black winter berries.

Planting

From Early Spring TO Early Spring

All jasmines need a fertile, well-drained soil in full or partial sun. Summer flowering jasmine needs a sheltered spot, full sun and a south or south west facing aspect. Winter flowering jasmine is more tolerant of partial shade and a south east or north west aspect. North and north east aspects are best avoided. Frost hardy species are fine in an unheated conservatory or a cold greenhouse kept frost-free with a small heater. Tender species may require a minimum night temperature of 13-15ºC (55-59ºF). Jasmines make lovely container specimens. Ensure you use a container with good drainage holes. Cover the holes with a crock or too so that the compost does not wash through, and fill with John Innes No 2. Leave space at the top for watering, and place the pot in bright but filtered light.
