Allow me to introduce you to your new favorite plant — star jasmine, for the uninitiated, is a fragrant, flowering vine that thrives in both partial sunlight and heavy shade. It is resultingly rather easy to care for, though you'd do best to plant it in a sunny spot (for more blooms) with soil that is both moist but well-drained.
Given it's low-maintenance profile, it's also one of the best plants to cover a fence and quite easy to train on a trellis, where it can then flower into a dense foliage-filled privacy screen, should you wish. Plus it's evergreen, which means it's functional all year long, as well as 'relatively cold-hardy,' says Shannon Searcy (@homebodyshan), an interiors content creator whose stunning jasmine trellis is the anchor of this piece. 'It goes dormant in the winter and comes back nice and happy in the spring' she adds, before warning to use frost protection if you're expecting a cold winter: 'Jasmine does not like to be frozen!'
