Plant description
This vigorous, twining climber produces clusters of sweetly scented, star-shaped flowers from early to midsummer.
The delicate mauve-pink blooms fade to white at the tips, creating a striking bicolour effect. Glossy, tapered green leaves, sometimes divided into five leaflets, provide an attractive backdrop.
Jasminum × stephanense 'Starry Starry Pink Lady' thrives in a warm, sheltered spot in well-drained soil and can tolerate dry conditions once established. It’s ideal for training up trellises, fences, or walls, bringing vertical interest and fragrance to the garden.
In cooler regions, provide winter protection to prevent frost damage. Grow it in a patio container with support, or let it sprawl over garden structures for a natural, informal look.

How to care for Jasminum × stephanense Starry Starry Pink Lady (PBR):
Plant Jasminum in a warm, sunny and sheltered location which helps to bring out the sweet fragrance of the flowers. If the soil is well-drained, it will cope with partial shade and colder positions, though it may suffer from frost damage in colder winters.
When planting, add some soil conditioner (well-rotted compost) to the planting hole and some mycorrhizal fungi to aid root establishment. Grow Jasminum against appropriate support such as trellis or wires attached to walls and fences. Tie the shoots into their support as they grow.

Please note:
This climber is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
