The right care of genuine jasmine (Jasminum officinale)
True jasmine is often mistaken for false jasmine or scented jasmine. The flowers and the scent are quite similar. In nursing the species differs considerably. The not hardy plant is cultivated in our latitudes only as a container plant or houseplant.
How should you water Real Jasmine?
Always sprinkle True Jasmine when the upper layer of soil has dried.
If it is very hot, sprinkle the ornamental plant with soft water to increase the humidity.
Does Real Jasmine Need Fertilizer?
Fertilize real jasmine every two weeks during the growth phase from spring to autumn with a liquid fertilizer for flowering plants. In winter, no fertilization.
When will real jasmine be repotted?
In the first few years, when you remove the ornamental plant from the winter quarters, you will be potting Real Jasmine in a larger planter each year.

Can Real Jasmine be cut?

How is Winter Jasmine overwintered?
True jasmine is not hardy in contrast to false jasmine. The ornamental plant must be wintered in a cool but frost-free place.
The hibernation temperatures should not be more than 10 degrees, rather cooler. Since the plant is deciduous, it loses its leaves in winter. The place may therefore be quiet dark.
During hibernation, true jasmine is not fertilized and so sparsely poured that the root ball does not dry out completely.
