Growing Jasmin Vine Zone 6?
Jasmine nudiflorum grows outside in zone 6, I have had it in my zone 6b garden for years. It blooms in January, looks a bit like forsythia, and has a delicate smell.



There are others you can grow in a pot, go to logees.com and look at their selection, or glasshouseworks.com
Reply:Try Winter Jasmine (jasmine nudiflorum) it is hardy, blooms in winter; has yellow flowers....you wouldn't even have to take it indoors. If you love the scent though, try forcing some paperwhite narcissus bulbs indoors during the winter...they smell wonderful!
Reply:plant vine beside the house , the ground never really freezes there it is shaded more in summer use a piece of broken slateto put around the top of roots so they never dry out and then mulch
Reply:Indoor lighting may be a problem, outdoor cold will be a problem.
