The Trachelospermum jasminoides ‘Star of Ibiza’, also known as the pink Tuscan jasmine or star jasmine, is an enchanting climbing plant that excels with its soft pink flowers and its delicious sweet scent. This Mediterranean beauty is evergreen and ideal for both gardens and terraces or balconies.
Bloom and fragrance
From early June to late August, the ‘Star of Ibiza’ displays its beautiful pink, star-shaped flowers that emit an intensely sweet fragrance. These fragrant flowers make it particularly attractive to both people and pollinating insects.
Leaves and growth
The plant has dark green, glossy leaves that remain throughout the year. Combined with the graceful flowers, this creates a lush appearance.
Use as a climbing plant
This star jasmine needs support, such as a trellis, fence, or pergola, and forms a beautiful green wall or arch. Due to its self-clinging properties, it elegantly winds its way up along the structure.
Location and care
Place the plant in a sunny to partially shaded spot, preferably in a sheltered location out of the wind. It loves a nutrient-rich, well-draining soil. In pots, it is important that the potting soil drains well.
Watering & pruning
Water regularly, especially during warm, dry periods. Prune if necessary after flowering to maintain the shape of the plant and stimulate growth. Remove old, dead, or excessively long shoots.
Application
Perfect for use against walls, on balconies, terraces, or as part of a fragrant garden. This jasmine adds atmosphere, color, and fragrance, even in smaller spaces.
