Plant history & use
Fragrant jasmine is a strongly scented climbing plant originating from the Middle East and Asia. It has been cultivated for thousands of years for its beautiful white flowers and intense evening scent, and is still used today in the perfume industry. The flowers can also be used in scent sachets, tea blends (in very small amounts), or as decoration.
In traditional herbal use, jasmine is said to have a calming effect, both as a scent and as a mild tea ingredient. In several cultures, it is used to flavor green tea.
Cultivation
Fragrant jasmine is reported to be hardy down to -15ºC (Phillips. R. & Rix. M. Shrubs., Davis. B. Climbers and Wall Shrubs.) and belongs to USDA growing zones 6-7, which correspond to -23ºC and -17ºC respectively. It is very much a temperate plant, although it belongs to the milder end of the temperate climate scale. It is widely grown in Great Britain: in the northern parts of the country against a wall facing south/west, and in the southern parts it is fully hardy. There are not many sources on cultivation in Sweden yet, but we ourselves will try to grow this against a stone wall facing southwest this year (2025).
In the colder parts of the country, it is preferably grown in a pot – preferably in a greenhouse, sunroom, or bright indoor environment. During summer, it can stand outdoors in a sheltered place. It is overwintered frost-free in the colder parts of the country.
Thrives best in full sun to light partial shade. Requires a climbing support. Pruned lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth.
