Carolina Jessamine is an evergreen vine found in open woods and thickets throughout the southeast. Flowers are rich yellow, 11/2 inch, open, bell-shaped and appear primarily in early through mid-spring and are very sweetly fragrant. In full sun and rich soil, the vine will flower abundantly and spread quickly, but it also grows in shade and poorer soil. Carolina Jessamine can be used very effectively to twine around a mailbox, lamp post, downspout, or trellis. It can be used as a trailing ground cover as well. We let it ramble over fences at our farm. Cat# 1099
