Interesting phenomenon . . .


Interesting phenomenon . . .

. . . flowers on Jasmine 'clotted cream' mostly have five petals, but a few have six, and some only four petals!

Thanks Shirley - I do love cream flowers, and it has a gorgeous scent too :)

Is it a special variety that allows you to grow it out doors Sheila?

I'm no expert Julia, but I thought that Jasmine was pretty much always a garden plant . . .

I always keep mine in doors. Do you protect it in anyway during the winter and is it in the ground or a pot...sorry to be a nuisance.

You're not a nuisance at all! It is in the ground, exposed on one side of the pergola with no protection. Seems to be hardy . . .

Thanks for that...right here goes, I'm going to plant mine out asap. Fingers crossed it grows as well as yours has done...
