I have a star jasmine blooming in my entry way, it smells heavenly.

Years ago when I lived in Washington I bought a dying leftover jasmine plant at the supermarket, after mothers day. I trimmed it up and fertilized it after repotting it. I hung it in my kitchen window and just watered it and it began to grow... and grow. It went across both sides of the curtain and down both sides of the window.. Ohe when it bloomed you could smell it thoughout the whole house.

Ohhh, I envy your jasmine! They smell so good and are so pretty! I have never had any luck with them. My grandmother had one and it did very well. Be very careful with your pets, all parts of the jasmine are poisinous if ingested! Enjoy it!

Oh I do know the Star Jasmine. I managed to get one near the end of the last season also. It is out on the patio over wintering. IT is far from blooming as it is freezing here right now. What I do have blooming is the Orchid. My first one and am I please. Even though it is not a scented one it is breathtakingly beautiful. Good for you in the Star Jasmine. I can hardly wait until mine blooms as well. Best to you and yours for 2011!

I have many plants but I dont' have the star jasmine. I shall definiely look for it to add to my collection. Photo Star Jasmine

Oh how wonderful for you! They are truely a beautiful flower and they smell so great. It is so cold here that there wont be flowers anytime soon but my daffadils and tulips are up several inches. Spring will surely come soon. Happy for you though.

Oh you, Lucky Ducky! Years ago, I had, what I thought was, honeysuckle plants in the yard. They smelled simply divine. And, they smelled even more amazing just as they were dying, kind of like nature's last ditch effort to attract bees for pollination. I've never forgotten that amazing smell. And, over the years, I've tried to keep honeysuckle in the house, but it just doesn't smell the same. So, I'm thinking it must have been wild jasmine growing in the yard. Don't know how it would have gotten there. Maybe the last remnant of someone's garden. Later, a neighbor mowed over the bushes that were at the edge of our property and sad to say, no more good smelling flowers in the yard.

That's a beautiful plant, isn't it?! Wish I had one, they smell so wonderful! I have clematis outside, forsythia, magnolia, and hummingbird vine; the magnolia's the only one that smells great. Inside I have my orchid collection. They're plants that have been handed down to me and go all the way back to the late 1800's. The containers for those are huge, so huge that when they bloom the blooms are almost the size of a saucer. I love blooming plants, they cheer us up so much just by looking at them.

My neioghbour has a star jasmine climbing over the fence so we have the beautiful perfume with out worrying if we will kill it. We do have a mock orange bush at our front door though and it has a heavenly scent also.

I really love the smell of jesmine, it has such a wonderful smell. Lucky you to get a jesmine blooming crazy. As we are in apartment we don't have much facilities for keeping flower pot. But I would love to have some flower around when we will get a house.

I never had a star jasmine but would like to have one. The only blooming plant I have right now is an african violet. I had this plant for for at least 10 years and it still blooms for me.I am from kansas and it is to cold out right now to be planting any plants. Cant wait untill spring so I cant plant all my flowers.

Send us a photo of it, so we can ratye it and add a good comment. I do't know much about blooming plants.

oh lucky you lol..my hubby's favourite fragrance is jasmine..that is why he buys me jasmine body lotion..jasmine hair spray...jasmine and more jasmine..i love it too so much..i used to have jasmine pots in greece ..when i lived there..with gardenias..they really are heavenly..enjoy..

I've got two in my garden, I am going to take a photograph of them later today and post it. I love their heavenly smell. Although mine is not in bloom right now, so watch this space:)

Not so heavenly for those who suffer from the volatile chemical component that its perfume emits. It is an extremely toxic plant to humans,birds, reptiles, cats and dogs. A third of the population suffer from its effects. The symptoms include severe repiratory problems and itchy to burning skin.

I think jasmine is also the same as our national flower, it's called 'sampaguita'. This flower as most of our old folks do, is to put it on their patrons' images, because of it's heavenly scent!;) It is also use as for adornimg and as ornaments for decorations, like for festivities and other celebrations You really are so correct about it's heavenly smell..
