On a support, it grows as a twining shrubby vine. Unsupported, it grows as a sprawling shrub. Plants feature small, waxy, white, salverform flowers (1” diameter) in clusters (cymes) of 3-12 blooms on downy stems clad with broad-ovate, dark green leaves (to 3” long). Flowers are exceptionally fragrant. In its native territory, this species will grow to as much as 25’ and produce flowers throughout the year. In containers in cooler climates, it usually is grown to 4-5’ with flowers appearing primarily in summer. In China, dried flowers are used to scent jasmine tea. In Hawaii (where commonly called pikake), flowers are used in leis. This species is the national flower of the Philippine Islands.Common Name: Arabian jasmineType: Broadleaf evergreenFamily: OleaceaeNative Range: Tropical AsiaZone: 9 to 11Height: 4.00 to 5.00 feetSpread: 4.00 to 5.00 feetBloom Time: June to AugustBloom Description: WhiteSun: Full sun to part shadeWater: MediumMaintenance: LowFlower: Showy, FragrantLeaf: Evergreen
