Garden Tuesday - Jasmine


We have star-jasmine growing over some of the natives at the back of our block.

I apologise for the poor quality photo. It doesn't do the jasmine justice.

But then star-jasmine is really a full sensory experience. The perfume that eminates from this ordinary looking creeper is simple and sweet.

I plan to grow this over an arch near our entrance when we renovate.

When you say full sensory... have you tried "eating" it? My favourite thing is to pick jasmine flowers and suck the nectar out (something like channeling your inner-bee!)

wow Joce I have honestly never tried that. I will have to discover my inner bee and try it! :)
