How to care for Jasminum fruticans Stella:
Incorporate some well-rotted organic matter into the planting hole when planting and add a scoop of mycorrhizal fungi. Mulch around the base of the plant in autumn to protect the roots from hard winter frosts. Once established, prune for form just after it has finished flowering.
Please note:
This shrub is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
