Why we love this plant!
Why we love this plant!
Thriving in South East Queensland’s warm and humid climate, Brazilian Jasmine is a versatile climber that produces an abundance of pink trumpet-shaped flowers for much of the year, attracting butterflies and pollinators. Its twining habit makes it ideal for covering trellises, fences, or growing in containers where it can cascade over the edges. Drought-tolerant once established, it suits both coastal and urban gardens, providing vibrant colour with minimal maintenance. Its ability to withstand heat makes it a popular choice for patios and balconies, adding a tropical feel to outdoor spaces.
