The Carolina Jasmine is an evergreen flowering vine that prefers growing in well-drained to well-drained moist soils and full sun to part shade. It can be useful in the landscape to climb arbors, trellises, fences, posts, the mailbox and other structures.

To plant, dig a hole no deeper than the root ball and two to three times the width of the root ball and fill it with water. If the hole drains within a few hours, you have good drainage. If the water is still standing 12 hours later, improve the drainage in your bed, perhaps by establishing a raised mound.

Turn and break up the soil removed from the planting hole. If the native soil is compacted, or heavy clay, amend with organic compost or a good soil amendment at a 50/50 ratio. This will help to condition the soil as well as hold moisture.

Remove your plant from its container and carefully but firmly loosen the root ball. Set the plant into the hole you've prepared, making sure the top of the root ball is at or slightly above the soil level. Pull your backfill soil mixture around the root ball in the hole, tamping lightly as you go to remove air pockets.

Water thoroughly and cover with a one to two-inch layer of mulch.

I fertilize Carolina Jasmine with a slow-release, well-balanced plant fertilizer when new growth starts to emerge in spring.
