Properties and uses:
The Bastard Jasmine is quite a unique bush. The uncommon tubular red flowers bloom in clusters and appear in May to stay until October.
In Autumn the bush is covered with deep red fruits, appreciated by the birds.
It has to be sheltered during the winter, except along the Mediterranean coast.
So, it is better to plant the Bastard Jasmine in a pot, or in a flowerbed sheltered from the Mistral wind. - Related Categories
