Introduction

Green plants and potted flowers are essential accents for home life; they beautify the room and lift the spirit. Keeping some flowers and plants at home brings many benefits. "Flower Voice Potted Plant Diary, Issue 1016" introduces you to a flower that is very much worth buying.

Today's star

"Elegant and light, its fragrance carries far; as a noble plant it wins even more praise. Its flowers are fragrant and its tea is fine, called a top-grade thing; food and medicine from the same source, the jasmine flower." May and June are the season of jasmine. Today I want to introduce a noble variety in the jasmine family: the Tiger Head Jasmine (Jasminum sambac 'Grand Duke of Tuscany'), blessed with an immortal's grace, jade bones and ice-white flesh, large flowers and rich fragrance, an extra-long blooming period, and it is also very easy to grow.

Tiger Head Jasmine

Tiger Head is a mutated variety, with pointed-leaf Tiger Head and round-leaf Tiger Head. Its characteristic is that the flowers are especially large; when fully open they are the diameter of an egg, double-petaled, with neatly arranged petals and full, layered form, like a miniature peony, with very high ornamental value. As soon as it was bred, it became widely popular, and flower lovers all take pride in owning a Tiger Head.

Extra-long blooming period

The Tiger Head has a very long blooming period, flowering from April to October each month. The first season blooms in spring (in Guangdong and Guangxi it can bloom in April; the farther south, the earlier it blooms), lasting about 30 days; the second season is in summer, July to August, blooming for more than 20 days, the peak blooming period, in the best condition, with large flowers, rich fragrance and long-lasting; the third season is the autumn bloom, lasting longer, up to more than 40 days. It can bloom in three seasons a year, and after the flowers fade, remove them promptly and it will soon bloom again in another wave, with an extra-long ornamental period.

Beautiful and easy to grow

Tiger Head is a perennial shrub plant in the Oleaceae family, genus Jasminum, bred specifically for horticultural potting, with strong vitality, strong adaptability and very easy cultivation. For potting, use loose, well-draining, airy soil; it likes light, so place it in a spot with ample sunlight; it has low demands for fertilizer and water, and with light fertilizer applied frequently (mixed into water) during the blooming and growing periods, it will stay in good condition. It is a plant that is both beautiful and easy to grow.

One flower can scent a whole room

When the Tiger Head blooms, it is very fragrant. Placed on a balcony, the whole interior can smell it. Especially at night, the floral fragrance is particularly rich. Pick a few small flowers and put them in a room, and one flower can scent a whole room. The fragrance is refreshing, purely natural, non-toxic and harmless, very pleasant to smell, and you can even save on air freshener. It is very much worth buying.
