Jasminum officinale
Common jasmine (Jasminum officinale) is a flowering, evergreen climbing plant with dark glossy leaves and fragrant, star-shaped white blooms. It is an old garden favourite prized for its luscious scent. This vine grows quickly and can reach heights of up to 10 feet, however pruning is required to keep it in check. Enjoy the lovely scent in spring and summer as the small flowers open in the evening. Common jasmine is hardy and easy to maintain in a sunny location although it does require well-drained soil. It makes a great fence cover or a romantic addition to an arbor or pergola.

watering
Common jasmine needs to be watered once per week, but the exact amount of water needed will depend on the specific conditions of your environment and the size of the jasmine plant. A general rule of thumb is that the soil should feel damp, but not overly saturated, whenever you check it with your fingers. Make sure to water deeply so that moisture penetrates 2-3 inches down into the soil. A good way to check for deep watering is to insert your finger into the soil to check for moisture after watering.
sunlight
Common jasmine (Jasminum officinale) plants thrive best in full sun to partial shade with 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day. These plants can withstand some shade, but will flower and produce better with more sunlight. Bright, direct sunshine is best for common jasmine plants during the spring and summer months, while dappled shade or light sun can be tolerated during the winter. Depending on the region, during the hottest part of the summer, common jasmine plants may need some protection from the intense heat of the direct sun.
pruning
Pruning of common jasmine should be done in the spring and early summer. To encourage bushier growth, it should be lightly pruned throughout the year. Common jasmine should be cut back to shape the plant and remove any dead sections or dying stems. Pruning should not take away more than 1-third of a stem at a time, and avoid leaving any large open wounds. This can disturb the overall health of the plant. It is also important to use clean, sharp pruners to avoid potential bacterial or fungal infections.
