Jasminum nudiflorum                                                                 Hardy Jasmine

 Size:  2’ X 4’

 Exposure:  Full to Part Shade

 Flower Time:  February to March

 Ornamental Characteristics:

 This low mounding evergreen shrub has been described to us as a “pass around plant” by a great plantsman.  However, we have not seen this to be true, or at least yrue enough.  J. nudiflorum has only been seen twice in this area by us (Munchkin Nursery and Bernheim).  The very early flower time adds some much needed color to the garden in late winter with its bright yellow blossoms.  The evergreen foliage stays clean and attractive throughout the growing season.  Down South this plant is used on steep hillsides quite frequently because of its ability to root readily where the branches touch.  Hardy Jasmine’s tolerance of many soils and moisture levels also make it a prime candidate for nasty landscape sites.  Shade is required to prevent winter desiccation.
