Description
Trachelospermum ‘Star of Toscana’, also known as Star Jasmine, is a stunning Mediterranean evergreen climber, supplied in a 15 cm pot with a height of approximately 65 cm. It is hardy down to -10°C, making it suitable for a variety of temperate climates. The plant is celebrated for its soft yellow, star-shaped flowers, which bloom abundantly from the beginning of June to the end of August. During this period, the flowers release a deliciously sweet fragrance, filling the garden or terrace with a captivating aroma.
The climber features oval, dark green leaves, providing year-round greenery and a beautiful contrast to the pale yellow blooms. As a twining climber, it requires support from a trellis, fence, or climbing frame, and its newly sprouting branches will naturally curl and attach themselves as they grow.
Trachelospermum ‘Star of Toscana’ thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers locations sheltered from strong winds. It grows well in normal, nutrient-rich soil when planted in the ground and is equally suited for cultivation in a large container on a terrace or balcony, offering versatile planting options. Regular watering, especially in dry periods, will help maintain vigorous growth and abundant flowering.
With its fragrant summer blooms, glossy evergreen foliage, and elegant climbing habit, Trachelospermum ‘Star of Toscana’ is perfect for adding beauty, fragrance, and a touch of Mediterranean charm to gardens, patios, or terraces.
