Chinese jasmine, Trachelospermum asiaticum, bears clusters of jasmine-scented, cream-white, flowers from mid- to late-summer, contrasting perfectly with dark green leaves. It's perfect for covering a sheltered, sunny wall or fence, and may be trained to grow through a tree.

Not reliably hardy, in northern and exposed regions provide winter protection for Trachelospermum asiaticum, or grow it as a conservatory plant.
