Trachelospermum asiaticum Pink Showers®
Asian Star Jasmine, Asian Jasmine, Small-leaved Confederate Jasmine, Yellow Star Jasmine.
The plant is beautiful and it has established itself without any issues. However, its growth is much slower than our other jasmine planted next to it. We've only had one small flower so far (first year).

Description
The Trachelospermum asiaticum 'Pink Showers' is a beautiful novelty that brings a touch of fantasy to the kingdom of climbing lianas. This new star jasmine offers pink flowers instead of the usual cream or white, diffusing the same extraordinary biscuit-like fragrance that we appreciate so much throughout the summer in the species. This voluble liana, adorned with small persistent shiny foliage that takes on pretty reddish hues in the cold and shade, also has the advantage of remaining attractive all year round. It can be installed near a fence, a pergola, or to cover the ground, which it will slowly but surely invade.
The Trachelospermum asiaticum, also known as yellow false jasmine, is a Japanese and Korean cousin of the Chinese Trachelospermum jasminoides. The 'Pink Showers' selection, recently obtained in France by Pépinières Travers and distinguished with the 1st prize Innovert at the Salon du Végétal in 2016, stands out with its flowering of tender pink stars with a small yellow heart. All of these plants belong to the apocynaceae family. This voluble liana produces long stems that can reach up to 5m (16ft) in length. They bear small, single, ovate leaves, on average 6cm (2in) long and 3cm (1in) wide, with pointed tips. They have a medium green color, with a shiny finish, turning brownish-orange tinged with reddish during winter. The flowering, long and abundant, takes place from May-June to August-September, for almost 4 months. Small bouquets of star-shaped flowers, helical, 2 to 5cm (1 to 2in) wide, appear in the axils of the leaves or at the tips of the branches. Their fragrance, reminiscent of jasmine, is however much sweeter, strongly imbued with vanilla.
A single plant of this Pink Showers false jasmine is capable of perfuming a whole area of the garden, especially in the evening and in hot weather. Under most climates, except for the coldest ones, it can be planted in the ground, preferably well-drained and humus-rich, in sunny or semi-shaded exposure. With relatively slow growth, this Trachelospermum asiaticum is most often used as a climber to cover a fence or a pergola, but it can also form a magnificent ground cover, resembling a soft, tender pink and fragrant carpet. It can be grown in pots in colder regions to be able to shelter it in winter. It can then be easily stored in an unheated veranda to enjoy its beautiful winter foliage. Balconies and terraces can also accommodate its prodigious flowering by placing the plant in a large container.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
