Stephanotis floribunda

Common Name:
Madagascar Jasmine

Description:
Stephanotis floribunda, commonly known as Madagascar Jasmine, is a stunning evergreen climber prized for its highly fragrant, waxy white flowers and glossy, deep green foliage. Flowering from spring to autumn, its star-shaped blooms are often used in wedding bouquets and floral arrangements due to their intense perfume. This tropical vine thrives in warm, humid conditions and prefers a position in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil. It is ideal for training over trellises, archways, or pergolas, making it a beautiful feature in courtyards and outdoor spaces. In cooler climates, it can be grown in pots and moved to a protected spot during winter. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages prolific flowering.
