Special Attributes
Snow ‘N Summer is an outstanding Asian Jasmine cultivar featuring dramatic tricolor foliage that will light up those shady areas of the garden. The new growth emerges a striking pink to pinkish-red color before turning solid white. The white leaves then turn to a deep emerald green flecked in white. The combination of all these colors is truly spectacular, and you’ll be happy to know it produces these bright colors even in shade. If that isn’t enough appeal, fragrant white flowers typical of Jasmine add sensory appeal to the garden during summer!
For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7a, where this Asian Jasmine is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Snow ‘N Summer Asiatic Jasmine is an exceptionally versatile plant with many uses in landscape and garden design. Although it makes a delightful groundcover that lights up shady to partly shaded spots, it can also be used as a climber on trellises, fences and other structures that provide support. It also brightens up container gardens and hanging baskets where it can be used as an accent plant or underplanting that will dramatically spill over the containers edge. Because it thrives in shade, it is perfect for use under the canopies of large shade trees, decks or other overhead structures. A fine addition pink or white theme gardens, Asian gardens and fragrance gardens!
Suggested Spacing: 24 to 36 inches apart for mass planting as a groundcover

It will tolerate temporary flooding but does not like constantly soggy or wet soil. This one likes life on the shady side. That said, morning sun is fine. Established plants are quite drought tolerant.
