Description
Unique in that it reblooms, 'Butterscotch' Yellow Jessamine, also called Jasmine, produces LOADS of fragrant, bright golden-yellow funnel shaped flowers in late winter to early spring and then again in fall! This cultivar flowers about 3 weeks later than Carolina Jasmine. The flowers contrast nicely with the shiny, dark green evergreen leaves that cover its dense, twining stems.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 12 feet in length and 2 to 4 feet wide, Butterscotch Jessamine is ideal for use to climb along the top of fences, on a trellis, on a mailbox, over a pergola or arbor or any other structure that might benefit from or support the vine.

A fine addition to fragrance gardens, yellow theme gardens,
Suggested Spacing: 3 to 6 feet apart on fences
