Instructions
Top Tip
Prune Trachelospermum lightly after flowering to control its shape and encourage new growth. Use it as a fragrant climber for walls, fences, or pergolas, adding elegance and scent to your garden.
How to Water
Water Trachelospermum regularly during the first year to establish roots, keeping the soil evenly moist. Once established, water during dry periods. Avoid overwatering, as it prefers slightly dry conditions between waterings.
How to Plant
Choose a sunny or partially shaded spot with well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball, place the plant, and backfill with soil. Water thoroughly after planting. Provide a support structure like a trellis for climbing and space plants 90-180cm apart.
