Anything to be seen on the underside of the leaves? Nice blurry pictures....any chance of some sharper images?

Hi All - First posting here. I stumbled in here, after searching for info on ground cover that grows rapidly and vertically. I live in the Metro Atlanta area, specifically about 30 minutes SW of the airport in Newnan. Our lot slopes up from the street, and our back yard has always been nearly non-existent. It went back maybe 10-15 feet, was uneven, and full of rocks. I had someone come in and do some grading to get a fairly flat surface, and 15-20 feet from the back of the house, so we could actually use part of the back yard. One spot was used to put a cheap pool (You can see it's still filling in the pic). Grading is a lot cheaper than building retaining walls, so that's not in my plan, at least not for a year or two. What I want to do is find something that I can plant at the base of this vertical slope (the loose dirt will be removed), and have it grow up the slope vertically, and hopefully root into it as it grows, to aid in holding it in place. Ultimately, I'd like it to continue to the upper part which has always been weeds, and cover that, choking out the unattractive weeds, and making it more maintenance free. It sounds like Confederate Jasmine may be what I'm looking for. As you can see in the picture, I am surrounded by hard, compacted clay, and to make it more fun, it's probably the rockiest soil I've seen here, and I've been in this area most of my life. How long do you think it would take Confederate Jasmine to grow to the top of the bare area (maybe 7' at the corner peak)? This area is in full Sun from maybe 11AM till just about dusk each day. Would it grow straight up, or would it fan out and grow up and out at the same pace? Should I plant it just at the base? How far apart should I plant it, and how is Confederate Jasmine sold? Thanks in advance!

I'm starting a trellis system and wondered if anyone would have some Carolina Jessamine they would be willing to share? I'd pay postage of course! Thanks so much!!

HI All, Wondering about moving this Carolina Jessamine. It has only had a few yellow trumpet shaped blooms and has been in this spot a long time. It gets dappled mid day sun for several hours so I'm guessing it needs more sun. I have a Star Jasmine about 10 feet away from this one that does great, with white, star blooms all over. I'm wondering when can I transplant it? Should I cut it back? I have heavy clay soil that I'll amend and was going to pick out a morning sun location that gets about 4-5 hours of sun. Thanks, Al
