The weekend was good for walks. Our gardening eyes rejoiced at the sight of handsome magnolias, which resemble white or pink clouds from a distance, which, as if unintentionally, sat for a moment in gardens and parks. In addition, golden forsythias, whose arched branches, heavy with flowers, strengthen the spring sun.

And we thought "what if we extend the spring and enjoy the lively colors earlier, during the winter, gray and depressing days?" And of course! After all, we have a great remedy for winter greyness!

A plant whose yellow flowers appear already in December and stay with us until spring. Jasminum nudiflorum, which in the Netherlands is called winter jasmine (winterjasmijn) is a shrub with long, slender shoots that we use as a hedge, often pruned, formed, or as a primitive climber. Jasminum, attached to a trellis on the wall, creates a nice green cover, and in winter it effectively evokes a bit of sun and gives hope for the arrival of spring.

Why are we writing about Jamsinum nudiflorum now, when blooming tulips and bushes lurk everywhere and we are awakened by the chirping of birds?
Because Jasminum nudiflorum is still available in our offer, in P9. If you replant them to, for example, C2 or C3, they will be a great element of your autumn offer, bringing your customers a lot of joy.

Practical information:
Jasminum nudiflorum grows best in sunny or semi-shady places, requires average garden soil, and is frost-resistant to about -18°C. In colder climates, it may bloom later than here in the Netherlands.
