Primrose Jasmine, Chinese Jasmine, Jasminum primulinum
Spectacular in mass plantings, award-winner Jasminum mesnyi (Primrose Jasmine) is a large, scrambling evergreen shrub with long, arching branches clothed with dark green trifoliate leaves. In winter or spring, depending on geographic areas, a profusion of sweetly fragrant, semi-double, bright yellow flowers, almost 2 in. across (4 cm), are on display. Fast-growing, Primrose Jasmine is ideal as bank cover (erosion control) since it spreads where the stems touch the ground. It is also very pretty when trailing over fences or walls and perfect for covering unsightly views.
