Nudiflora Jasmine P9(0.5L)

Nudifloral jasmine (Jasminum nudiflorum) – Winter Sun in the Garden

Nudiflora jasmine is a unique climber that delights with its flowering in the coldest months of the year. Its intense yellow flowers develop from December to March, even on leafless shoots, adding color and life to the garden during winter dormancy of most plants.

Characteristics

• Habit and Size:
  Nudiflora jasmine is a climber or shrub with a creeping habit. It grows to a height of about 3 m if it is led at supports. Without supports, the plant grows widely on the ground, acting as a ground cover.

• Flowers:
  Intense yellow, bell-shaped flowers with a diameter of about 2 cm appear on leafless shoots from December to March. They are not fragrant, but their vivid colors perfectly illuminate the garden in winter.

• List:
  Small, lanceolate, dark green leaves appear only after the flowering period in spring.

Growing conditions

• Position:
  It grows best in sunny or semi-shaded positions. The sun is conducive to abundant flowering.

• Soil:
  It prefers fertile, well-drained and moderately moist soils. It also tolerates sandy and average soils in terms of richness.

• Watering:
  Young plants require regular watering, especially during periods of drought. Well-rooted specimens are more resistant to water shortage.

• Frost resistance:
  Hardy (zone 6–9), but in harsh winters young plants may need to be covered.

Care

• Trimming:
  The best time for pruning is in spring, after flowering has ended. Pruning allows you to control the growth of the plant and stimulates the development of new shoots that will bloom in the next season.

• Fertilization:
  In the spring, you can use a compound or organic fertilizer to promote growth and flowering.

• Mulching:
  Bark or compost mulch helps to keep the soil moist and protects the roots from frost.
