Night Blooming Jasmine Care Guide

Sunlight: Grow in a bright location with several hours of direct sunlight. Morning or afternoon sun can work well, especially where intense midday sunlight is harsh. In very hot climates, some protection from the strongest afternoon sun may help.

Watering: Water thoroughly during warm weather and active growth, allowing excess water to drain away. Keep the soil lightly moist but not waterlogged. During cooler months, reduce watering and allow the upper soil to dry more between waterings.

Soil: Use fertile, well-draining potting mix. A container must have drainage holes to prevent excess moisture around the roots.

Fertilizing: This shrub can be a heavy feeder during active growth. Apply a balanced fertilizer according to the label directions during the growing season. Avoid excessive feeding, and refresh or replace container potting mix when appropriate.

Pruning: Prune to shape the shrub, manage its size, and remove dead or damaged branches. Avoid removing too much growth at once, particularly when the plant is developing flower buds.

Temperature: Night Blooming Jasmine prefers warm conditions and is sensitive to frost. In colder climates, grow it in a container that can be moved to a protected location when temperatures drop.

Flowering and fragrance: Blooming depends on plant maturity, sunlight, warmth, and growing conditions. Flowers and fragrance may not be present when your plant arrives, and flowering is not guaranteed immediately after purchase.

Important Safety Information

Night Blooming Jasmine is toxic if ingested. Keep the plant away from children and pets who may chew its leaves, flowers, or berries. Do not consume any part of the plant.

Shipping and Arrival

Your plant will be shipped in its 6-inch nursery pot. Live plants can experience minor leaf movement or temporary stress during transit.
