Jasminum polyanthum, a native of western China, is a fast-growing, evergreen vine. It can climb up to 20 feet and is best grown in USDA Zones 8-11. Its dark green leaves contrast beautifully with clusters of delicate rosy buds, which open to reveal star-shaped white and off-white fragrant blooms from February to April. Perfect for filling in an evergreen trellis or hanging basket, the blooms attract butterflies and hummingbirds in warmer climates.

Plant Pink Jasmine in an area that gets full sun to light shade. Once established, it handles medium to low water needs. Water regularly during the spring and summer, making sure not to over-water the plant. During the winter, reduce water for an evergreen vine, but do not water it so much that the soil is dry or the roots are deprived of water.

In colder climates, Pink Jasmine can be grown in a container and taken indoors to protect it from the winter weather. Make sure the pot is well-draining and has adequate air circulation. Use a soil mix that drains well and can hold some moisture. Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Place the pot near a window that faces south or west that receives full sun or partial shade. Make sure to bring the potted plant indoors before temperatures drop below freezing, as it can only tolerate a few hours of cold temperatures.

Jasminum multiflorum, also known as the Downy Jasmine, is a spreading shrub native to Tropical Asia. It is known for its sweet-scented white star-like flowers, which bloom nearly year-round, attracting butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden.

This plant is adaptable to various soil types as long as it is not waterlogged and can tolerate full sun to semi-shade conditions. It is also salt-tolerant, making it a great choice for seaside gardens. The shrub can grow to be 5-10 ft tall and just as wide, appearing as an open, spreading, and weeping mound. Its stems and leaves are covered in a downy pubescence that gives it a grayish-green appearance. The ovate leaves are rounded at the base and are opposite each other on the stem.

Jasminum multiflorum is easy to care for and can be grown in USDA Zones 9-11. When grown in pots, it is important to use a container with drainage holes and quality potting soil. In cold regions, it should be treated as an annual or brought indoors during winter. If grown indoors, it should be placed in a well-lit location and watered only when the soil is almost dry. Fertilize regularly with a balanced fertilizer throughout the summer and stop when the plant enters its dormant stage.

Jasminum rex is a tropical jasmine valued for its exceptionally large, pure white flowers, often reaching about 3 inches across, which are among the largest in the genus. The plant produces abundant blooms in fall and early winter, often covering itself with clusters of flowers for several weeks. Despite the showy display, the flowers have little to no fragrance. Leaves are relatively large, and the overall growth is somewhat slow and manageable, making it suitable for limited spaces and container culture.

This species requires full sun for reliable flowering and well-drained soil, as it does not tolerate soggy conditions or standing moisture around the roots. Regular watering is needed, but the soil should dry slightly between applications. Growth becomes more vigorous once established, especially with feeding during active periods. Cold tolerance is limited, with best performance in USDA Zone 10 and warmer; even light frost may cause damage. Jasminum rex performs best in frost-free environments with good light and careful moisture control.
