💛One for the garden to brighten up Spring 💛

Jasminum nudiflorum 'winter jasmine' brightens up gardens during the colder months. Here's everything you need to know about it:

💛 Unlike most jasmines, it’s unscented and flowers in the depths of winter (December–March)

💛 Nudiflorum means 'naked flower' in Latin, referring to its flowers appearing on bare stems before leaves emerge

💛 It grows in well-drained soil in a sheltered position in sun or partial shade and is best pruned after flowering to encourage new shoots for next year’s blooms

💛 It's a deciduous shrub with long, arching green stems that can be trained as a climber or left as a sprawling groundcover. It also provides early nectar for winter-active insects

💛 It was introduced to Europe in 1844 by Robert Fortune, a Scottish plant hunter and botanist who collected specimens in China
