The plant was a bit dry and had few leaves.... I replanted it the same day, carefully, in good soil. I’m waiting for winter to be over to see whether it takes well. I can’t say for the moment. I hope it will be lovely and pink and fragrant!

Description
The Trachelospermum asiaticum 'Pink Showers' is a beautiful novelty that brings a touch of fantasy to the kingdom of climbing lianas. This new star jasmine offers pink flowers instead of the usual cream or white, diffusing the same extraordinary biscuit-like fragrance that we appreciate so much throughout the summer in the species. This voluble liana, adorned with small persistent shiny foliage that takes on pretty reddish hues in the cold and shade, also has the advantage of remaining attractive all year round. It can be installed near a fence, a pergola, or to cover the ground, which it will slowly but surely invade.
The Trachelospermum asiaticum, also known as yellow false jasmine, is a Japanese and Korean cousin of the Chinese Trachelospermum jasminoides. The 'Pink Showers' selection, recently obtained in France by Pépinières Travers and distinguished with the 1st prize Innovert at the Salon du Végétal in 2016, stands out with its flowering of tender pink stars with a small yellow heart. All of these plants belong to the apocynaceae family. This voluble liana produces long stems that can reach up to 5m (16ft) in length. They bear small, single, ovate leaves, on average 6cm (2in) long and 3cm (1in) wide, with pointed tips. They have a medium green color, with a shiny finish, turning brownish-orange tinged with reddish during winter. The flowering, long and abundant, takes place from May-June to August-September, for almost 4 months. Small bouquets of star-shaped flowers, helical, 2 to 5cm (1 to 2in) wide, appear in the axils of the leaves or at the tips of the branches. Their fragrance, reminiscent of jasmine, is however much sweeter, strongly imbued with vanilla.
A single plant of this Pink Showers false jasmine is capable of perfuming a whole area of the garden, especially in the evening and in hot weather. Under most climates, except for the coldest ones, it can be planted in the ground, preferably well-drained and humus-rich, in sunny or semi-shaded exposure. With relatively slow growth, this Trachelospermum asiaticum is most often used as a climber to cover a fence or a pergola, but it can also form a magnificent ground cover, resembling a soft, tender pink and fragrant carpet. It can be grown in pots in colder regions to be able to shelter it in winter. It can then be easily stored in an unheated veranda to enjoy its beautiful winter foliage. Balconies and terraces can also accommodate its prodigious flowering by placing the plant in a large container.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
