Growth habits of double-color jasmine

It is mainly cultivated in greenhouses in East China and North China. Its growth temperature is 18~30°C, and below 12°C it enters a dormant period. It is suitable for growing in well-drained, slightly acidic soil.

Indoor care must ensure sufficient sunlight, with more than 4 hours of light per day, for abundant flowering.

Under the influence of light and temperature, the flowers gradually change from deep blue at the beginning of blooming to white. Because the flowering times on the same plant differ, the ones that bloom first turn white, while the ones that bloom later appear deep purple. The two-colored flowers bloom on the branches together like yin-yang, and at the same time give off a rich fragrance.
