Star Jasmine – Plant Growing & Care Guide

Star Jasmine – Plant Growing & Care Guide

Star jasmine is a fast-growing and fragrant evergreen vine that not only gives you great coverage & privacy as a climbing or creeping vine, it also bursts into blooms with incredible-smelling flowers in the spring. The plant is native to Asia, but is incredibly popular in the Southeastern United States and areas of California. In warm environments like these, star jasmine is also super easy to care for and grow. Just another reason we love it!

Star jasmine can grow as a dense ground cover, but we prefer to use it as a climbing vine. This does require a trellis, pergola, stakes, or some other structure for it to grow up. Those are easy to make and we have DIY tutorials for a wire trellis on a wall as well as a freestanding privacy trellis.

Star Jasmine Quick Facts

Here’s what you need to know about star jasmine at a glance:

  • Latin nameTrachelospermum jasminoides
  • Plant type: Evergreen climbing vine
  • Flowers: White star-shaped blooms in late spring & early summer
  • Sun exposure: Full sun to part shade

The Best Greige Paint Colors (According To Experts)

The Best Greige Paint Colors (According To Experts)

“Greige” is that sweet spot between gray & beige, and it’s a paint color that’s both trendy and timeless. In fact, we’ve been on the greige bandwagon for nearly 20 years – well before we’d even heard that term! But finding the perfect greige can be daunting. There are 100s of neutral paint colors that could be considered greige, so we’ve waded through dozens of expert round-ups to see what colors come up over and over again. (Yes, I made a spreadsheet. And yes, I liked it).

We weren’t surprised to see our favorite greige paint show up on this Iist, but the color that ranked #1 was a bit of a shock to us!

What Is Greige?

Greige is an umbrella term for any color that dances the line between gray and beige (gray + beige = greige).
