For a lush, green garden that’s easy to maintain so you don’t have to spend your whole Summer out in the yard, plant a plethora of Asian Jasmine and watch it spread its beauty with ease. Tolerant of a wide variety of growing conditions, this lovely Asian Jasmine plant is a sturdy, hearty shrub that makes the perfect ground covering anywhere you need it. Capable of growing well in anything from full sun to full shade, but preferring at least partial shade, simply keep the soil somewhat moist and this evergreen will easily grow to 2-3 feet wide and 6-12 inches tall at full maturity. Great as a ground cover for erosion control or simply to make your garden look glorious, your Asian Jasmine plant won’t just look nice; it’ll work for you and the land as well.
Dense, Glossy Foliage: Asian Jasmine features rich, dark green leaves that create a thick, mat-like groundcover, helping to suppress weeds and retain moisture in the soil. The evergreen foliage stays vibrant year-round, adding continuous texture and greenery to your landscape.
• Low Maintenance & Hardy: This tough groundcover is incredibly easy to care for, requiring minimal attention once established. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and is drought-tolerant, making it an excellent choice for dry or difficult-to-maintain areas.
• Fast-Growing Groundcover: Asian Jasmine spreads rapidly, filling in large areas or slopes with a dense carpet of greenery. Its fast growth makes it ideal for erosion control or for covering unsightly bare spots in your garden.
• Versatile Landscape Use: Whether used as a groundcover for garden beds, on slopes for erosion control, or as a filler between stepping stones, Asian Jasmine is highly versatile. Its trailing growth also makes it a great option for hanging baskets or cascading over walls.
• Occasional Fragrant Blooms: While primarily grown for its foliage, Asian Jasmine may produce small, star-shaped white flowers in summer, adding a subtle fragrance to your garden.
Asian Jasmine offers a fast-growing, low-maintenance solution for creating lush, green groundcover in a variety of landscape settings. Its glossy evergreen foliage provides year-round beauty, while its ability to tolerate drought, shade, and poor soil conditions makes it a dependable choice for filling large areas with minimal upkeep. Whether you’re looking to control erosion on a slope or add greenery to garden beds, Asian Jasmine brings effortless beauty to your outdoor space.

Shipping & Returns
Shipping & Returns
Shipping:
Shipping live plants sometimes has its challenges when dealing with inclement weather but we strive to have every single order shipped out on their scheduled shipping date. Most orders will be scheduled to ship within 1-2 weeks of ordering. Because a plant needs TLC we only ship out on Mondays-Wednesdays to ensure the plants aren’t stationed somewhere over the weekend with no water or sunlight.
When to Ship:
We can ship out plants at anytime of the year pruned or not pruned, cold or not cold. Each plant’s durabilty is different so we recommend having them shipped in their designated season but we will still ship your plant to you earlier if you choose so.
Returns:
Because plants are perishable they cannot be returned without prior permission. We work hard to ensure all plants arrive healthy, but on rare occasions issues with the plant health upon delivery do arise.
Every single shipped plant is healthy upon departing our facility but if a plant is received in poor health contact us immediately so that we can assess the problem and work on saving the plant. We will first need a photo of the plant to start a claim. If we determine your plant cannot be recovered we will send you a replacement immediately. If notified of the plants health within 4 days we will send a replacement 100% free of charge.
If you determine the plant not to be healthy 4 days after delivery you can contact us and we will issue a 50% store credit.
30 days after delivery we cannot be held responsible for the current health of the plant.

We need Asiatic Jasmine for 1000 square feet of ground cover. What is the most economical way for our family to accomplish that? Thank you.
The most economical way to cover 1,000 square feet with Asiatic Jasmine (Trachelospermum asiaticum) is:
- Use Plugs Instead of Pots – Buy 2.5-inch plugs, which are cheaper and spread quickly.
- Space Plugs 12 Inches Apart – This reduces the number of plants needed while ensuring full coverage in 6-12 months.
- You’ll need about 1,000 plugs (1 per sq. ft.) for fast coverage or 500 plugs (1 per 2 sq. ft.) for a budget-friendly option.
- Buy in Bulk – Wholesale nurseries or online bulk orders offer discounts.
- DIY Planting & Mulching – Save on labor costs by planting yourself and using mulch to suppress weeds while the plants establish.
- Water & Fertilize for Faster Growth – Regular watering and a balanced fertilizer promote quicker spreading.

I want a small vining flowering plant to place inside right next to a window in a long rectangular pot with two other plants that are climbing on a small fence-type rack.
Asian jasmine can be a great choice for an indoor vining plant next to a window, but it typically doesn't produce a lot of flowers indoors. It's more known for its lush, green foliage and ability to climb structures, like your small fence-type rack. If you're specifically looking for a flowering plant, you might consider other indoor-friendly flowering vines like hoya or jasmine varieties bred for indoor conditions. However, Asian jasmine will still provide a beautiful green backdrop and is fairly low-maintenance. Just ensure it gets bright, indirect light for best results.

When should I plant my Asian jasmine
The best time to plant Asian Jasmine is during the spring or early fall. Planting in the spring allows the roots to establish before the summer heat, while planting in early fall gives the plant time to settle in cooler temperatures. In USDA zones 7-10, where Asian Jasmine thrives, avoid planting during extreme heat or frost periods. Ensure the soil is well-draining, and the plant gets full sun to partial shade for optimal growth.
