Trachelospermum jasminoides ‘Star of Tuscany’ is a cultivated evergreen climber in the Trachelospermum genus, celebrated for its fragrant flowers, glossy foliage, and ornamental versatility. Supplied in a 3-litre container approximately 18–20 cm in height and diameter, it establishes quickly in garden soil, raised beds, or large containers. Its flowers are star-shaped, golden-yellow, and intensely scented, appearing from June through August, filling the garden with the rich fragrance typical of the jasmine family. The clusters of blooms create a warm, glowing display against lush green foliage, providing months of visual and aromatic enjoyment.
The twining stems of ‘Star of Tuscany’ allow it to climb pergolas, trellises, fences, and walls with ease, forming elegant vertical screens or floral canopies. Its natural growth habit also enables it to weave through shrubs or cover bare walls, adding height, colour, and structure to garden schemes. The evergreen foliage is glossy green year-round, often taking on bronze hues in winter, maintaining visual appeal even outside the flowering season. Light pruning after flowering helps maintain size, shape, and encourages fresh growth and blooms in following seasons.
