Trachelospermum asiaticum 'Chilli and Vanilla', 3L
This unusual star jasmine is notable for its creamy- yellow, star shaped flowers that emit a strong sweet fragrance, set against small, green leaves. The dense foliage can be trained vertically, easily covering a pergola or fence. Its name comes from its sweet fragrance, and from the seed pods that resemble chilli pods, turning red as they mature.
