The perfect ever-bloom beneath your shade tree

Tabernaemontana divaricata - Pinwheel Jasmine in bloom

🎡 The perfect ever-bloom beneath your shade tree
  • ➕ Tabernaemontana divaricata, also known as Pinwheel Jasmine or Crape Jasmine, is in bloom virtually year around at Top Tropicals garden.
  • ➕ It is a charming, low-maintenance shrub that thrives under taller trees, like palms or oaks. With glossy green leaves and delicate white, pinwheel-shaped flowers, it adds brightness and elegance to shaded spaces.
  • ➕ Blooming year-round, Pinwheel Jasmine brings steady beauty to your garden and can even be trained into a small ornamental tree.
  • ➕ While it loves bright light for the best floral show, it's surprisingly shade-tolerant - making it a go-to choice for under-tree planting.


🛒 Let your shady spots bloom beautifully!
