I’ve just ordered a ‘Clotted Cream’ Jasmine….

…supposed to be highly scented, from the same co. where I got the hollyhocks to ‘clothe’ my newly bare fence for the summer.

Those arrived quickly, very healthy looking and have really taken off, so I’m hoping the jasmine will do as well.
The co. is Roots, in case anyone wants to know.

I have two jasmines.One white which I planted in the border several years ago but it's the very sunniest part of the garden and despite watering well it's failed to take off.I then put a Clotted Cream one in a very large pot with a trellis near my back door and bench and its taken off like a rocket. I give it the odd feed of liquid seaweed. It smells gorgeous.

I can’t stop my clotted cream from growing on my trellis. I hack it back and it regrows so quickly.
