Climbing as high as 40ft in the air and looking so beautiful they’re sure to draw the eye to enjoy its entire height, the Star Confederate Jasmine evergreen vine is as lovely as it is easy to grow. A great choice for the novice gardener, it’s not just easy to maintain but also drought resistant, pest free, and grows quickly with gorgeous white flowers so it always looks amazing no matter what. Use this wonderfully fragrant vine to cover fences, to soften the look of less than attractive structures like concrete walls, or even to simply add style in a hanging basket. Great for growing up tree trunks due to its strong roots that hold the trunk and allow it to pull itself even higher, your garden doesn’t have to stay at ground level anymore.
