Stephanotis floribunda
Madagascar jasmine
- Position: bright but indirect light
- Soil: good potting compost
- Rate of growth: average to fast
- Hardiness: tender (indoors only)
- Current height: approximately 20cm (+ or - 10% including the pot)
- Pot cover: choose a 14cm pot cover to give a good fit over the pot (15cm for a ceramic pot cover)
- Home care: Throughout the summer, keep the compost moist but not waterlogged. In cooler months, water less often and only when the compost is reasonably dry. Mist the leaves with water freely, especially if located near central heating. Maintain the temperature above 15°C (avoiding temperature fluctuations to mirror sub-tropical climate).
Native to Madagascar, this beautiful, sub-tropical climbing vine has been trained around a simple frame. White, waxy and fabulously fragrant tubular-shaped flowers appear in clusters. Glossy, dark, evergreen leaves clothe this elegant structure, creating a stunning floral and delicately fragranced centrepiece.
Please note that the plant comes in a 12cm nursery pot as standard, unless a decorative pot cover is included as an option.
