Plant Growing Tips

Where to Grow

Trachelospermum Tricolor (*Trachelospermum asiaticum* 'Tricolor') thrives in full sun to partial shade, though its vibrant foliage colors are enhanced in brighter light. This low-growing, spreading vine is ideal as a ground cover, in borders, or in containers, where its pink, white, and green variegated foliage can add interest. Ensure the planting site has well-draining soil, as this plant prefers moist but not waterlogged conditions.

Climate

Tricolor Star Jasmine prefers a warm, temperate to subtropical climate and grows best in temperatures between 15°C and 30°C. It is frost-tolerant but may need protection in areas with prolonged frost. In warmer climates, it is evergreen, providing year-round foliage color, and can tolerate moderate drought once established.

Soil Type

Plant Trachelospermum Tricolor in well-draining soil. It adapts to a variety of soil types, including sandy and loamy soils, and performs well in slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0). Adding compost or organic matter improves soil quality and helps retain moisture without causing waterlogging.

Fertilizer

Feed Tricolor Star Jasmine with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in early spring to promote healthy growth and vibrant foliage colors. An additional application of organic compost or liquid seaweed in mid-summer can help sustain its lush appearance.
