Stephanotis floribunda - Madagascar Jasmine

Stephanotis floribunda does well in full sun to light shade near the coast but requires some protection away from the coast. The Madagascar Jasmine does best with the roots in a cool shaded location. I planted this Stephanotis floribunda on the North side of a slatted fence so the plants could start out in shade and then shade their own roots. Stephanotis floribunda does surprisingly well in a low water garden once established. The fragrant white flowers are often used in bridal nosegay's and grooms boutonnière's. The Madagascar Jasmine blooms through much of the Summer. Stephanotis floribunda is Winter hardy in frost free or nearly frost free gardens.
