Comments (4)I think it is just trying to adapt to its new setting.water carefully, and keep it in warm but not hot place in shade for few days until you see the plant perking up. These are tough plants and will do well....See MoreDo I want an Arabian Jasmine?
Comments (11)Here is my lactea and my Gigantiaas you can see, they are still tiny and there are only a few flowers at a time. Both are blooming so I can compare the scents. The lactea gets morning sun, afternoon shade and the gigantica is the opposite so I m not sure if that impacts the scent. The lactea is more subtle, and the gigantea is more wafting and sweeter smelling. The kind of scent where you open the door and say "ohhhh something smells good out here" Michelia Alba is like that too. My husband liked to say it smelled like juicy fruit gum. It's a delicious scent, pleasant and noticeable but not overwhelming considering when the whole tree is blooming it can have 100's of flowers....See Moregrowing Arabian Jasmine and Mandevilla indoors
Comments (8)Welcome to Alberta : ) . I moved here from NYC about 25 years ago, and though I don't have to deal with Calgary chinooks (we're about 3 hours east of Edmonton), gardening here is a challenge, especially because every year has different weather. It takes a lot of work, a lot of research, and a lot of trial and error. My best advice is to find local gardeners and learn everything you can from them, and don't try to replicate a very different climate. I've had very good luck overwintering mandevilla for several years. For me it seems to do better if I keep it in the basement and basically ignore it, rather than keeping it on a windowsill in the living room and tending it carefully through the winter. Jasmine has done well for me overwintering on the windowsill. I start bringing all of my tender tropicals, including mandevilla and jasmine, into the house in September. Yes, you can plant shrubs now. It'll give them time to get established before frost. Gardening in Calgary is unique, different from gardening in Edmonton and other parts of the province. Get a copy of "The Calgary Gardener: The Essential Guide to Gardening in Alberta's Chinook Country", by the Calgary Horticultural Society, which I would considering joining -- they have a magazine for members, Calgary Gardening, and also have classes and coaching workshops, and tours. Another helpful book is "The Chinook Short Season Yard: Quick and Beautiful in the Calgary Region" by Lyndon Penner. The spreader roses I think are supposed to be rated to zone 3 if I recall correctly. It's always worth a try, I think, as long as there's room in the budget and in the garden : ) . For roses, the book "Growing Roses in Calgary" from the Calgary Rose Society is a very good resource. This is a good blog for Calgary/Alberta gardening, https://floweryprose.com. One important thing to remember -- just because it's sold at your local nursery, greenhouse, Home Depot, etc. does not mean it's suitable for local conditions. Some are much too tender and should just be treated like annuals. Because of the chinooks, you will have to do a lot of experimentation....See Moreodd tiny clusters on Arabian Jasmine
Comments (0)This plant has been in the ground for years. Today i notice this odd growth on one side of the bush. I don't think it is seeds because I thought Jasmine seeds grow in long bean like pods?...See Moreritaweeda
