watering
Water orange jessamine regularly and thoroughly throughout the growing season. Water frequently during periods of active growth and once established the plants require less often but more thorough watering. In the summer, water the plant every 5-7 days with about 1 inch of water, and in the winter, water it less frequently, about every 10-14 days. Make sure to water at soil level and avoid wetting the foliage to prevent disease.

pruning
Orange jessamine should be pruned at least once a year in late winter or early spring. Trim back any dead, damaged, or crossing branches and fertilize your plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Prune the plant lightly when it's young to promote bushy, even growth, and prune it more aggressively as it matures to keep it to the desired shape. For proper pruning, remove no more than 1-third of the plant at a time, as too much pruning can weaken or even kill the plant.
