Star performer

The star jasmine Trachelospermum jasminoides  is absolutely stunning at the moment and has a perfume to die for.  Here are two pretty examples of its use in my neighbourhood.


Complementing a stained glass window and murraya hedge at a coffee shop in Martha Street Camp Hill



Smothering an arbour in a nearby street

There are also some great examples of it being used on more commercial sites.


As a ground cover with cycads - just the tips of their fronds showing.


Softening a cyclone wire fence at a local school


I've opted for the variegated version along my driveway.

With a 'Little Gem' magnolia and backplanted with agapanthus
