I've been looking for someplace I could get this plant live for awhile. We used to have it just outside our front door and I miss it.We had to move and couldn't take it with us. I'm looking for this specific type since it's also the type that is safe to use in teas (as well as looking and smelling nice). Does anyone here know where to find it?

Last year I stumbled over several medium length vines in my local nursery (Long Island, NY). I'm almost sure that Jasmine would bot winter well, but they had the vines in a single pot arranged over a trellis. I'm betting that if you took the pot in during the winter (and basically ignored it except to keep the soil from completely drying out) that it would wake up if put back out after the last frost. I saw the plant in question being sold in late May, early June. So visit one or two of your bigger nurseries, and ask them about it. I'll bet they'll have one or two in their hothouse by June 5th or so.
