ASIAN JASMINE<br />
Trachelospermum Asiaticum<br />
Asiatic Minima Dwarf Jasmine<br />
is a true ground cover that<br />
forms a thick mat and is<br />
more drought and shade tolerant<br />
than most turf grasses. It can<br />
be used as a turf substitute that<br />
does not need to mowed and<br />
will stay green in the winter—just<br />
don’t expect it to withstand a lot<br />
of foot traffic.<br />
Some experts recommend<br />
mowing a jasmine bed in the late<br />
winter as the new growth period<br />
begins. The benefit is a more<br />
uniform height to the planting<br />
and lower susceptibility to<br />
disease due to better air movement<br />
within the canopy. Set your<br />
mower to the highest setting; the<br />
foliage will be mostly removed<br />
but will quickly be replaced by<br />
new growth within a few weeks.<br />
Weeds don’t usually pose a problem<br />
in a mature planting due to its<br />
dense growth, but if weed control is<br />
needed, the use of Roundup® mixed<br />
to 1oz./gal is highly effective with no<br />
adverse reactions to the Jasmine. Do<br />
not treat until after the spring growing<br />
phase.<br />
