Hi All;
For several years now we have had this jasmine plant out in the studio.
Slowly but surely it is taking over.
The silly thing does not seem to know or care that it is in northern Montana... nor that its February and its blooming!
It's gotten so thick you can hardly see R's namesake sitting in the basket!

It smells heavenly !!!

It looks gorgeous! Do you have it potted, or in full ground somehow (I realize this is inside a studio, but maybe there's a spot where there's no tiles?)

The long work bench that sits under the Jasmine was at one time a large planter box . All the dirt is still there under the bench.  
That silly Jasmine is rooted there (has lots of space) it hardly gets watered ,at least not regularly. But there it is in all its glory!
Like I said the smell is heavenly!

I can imagine the smell must be heavenly. My mother has jasmine in her garden, I've loved the smell ever since I was a child. Ah good memories!
