Trachelospermum performs best in sheltered gardens protected from cold winds.

Watering, Feeding & Flowering

• Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots.

• Keep soil evenly moist during dry spells.

• Once established, plants are moderately drought tolerant.

• Feed in spring with a balanced fertiliser to encourage healthy growth.

• A second light feed in early summer can support flowering.

• Flowering typically occurs from early to mid-summer.

• Full sun encourages more abundant blooms and stronger fragrance.

Consistent moisture during active growth supports reliable flowering.

Pruning, Maintenance & General Care

• Remove any dead, damaged, or overcrowded stems.

• Tie in new shoots to maintain coverage on supports.

• Mulch annually to conserve moisture and suppress weeds.
