Trachelospermum jasminoides 'Star of Sicily'

The star jasmine that adds a little pink to the familiar white story 💗

Family: Apocynaceae • Pot size: 15 cm • Height: 35-40 cm

Apocynaceae Evergreen Sun – light partial shade Low-maintenance Climbing with fragrance

Trachelospermum jasminoides 'Star of Sicily' brings all the charm of classic star jasmine, but with a softer and more distinctive colour mood. Its star-shaped flowers open in a delicate pink and often fade toward white as they mature, while keeping that sweet, fresh fragrance that makes this genus so loved near entrances, sitting areas and balconies. It has glossy, dark green foliage all year round and a climbing habit that feels elegant rather than heavy, making it ideal for trellises, small pergolas or containers with support. It is the kind of plant that makes a space feel cooler, more polished and just a little more summery without ever becoming excessive.

Light

☀️ Sun

It flowers best in a sunny position, but also tolerates light partial shade.

Watering

💧 Moderate

More regular watering while establishing and in pots, without leaving the soil soggy.

Flowering

💗 Pink-white

Fragrant star-shaped blooms from early summer and for many months.

Fragrance

🤍 Sweet

The scent becomes especially enjoyable on warm afternoons and near seating areas.

What makes it stand out

💗 Soft pink flowers that feel more distinctive than the classic white star jasmine.
🌿 Glossy evergreen foliage that keeps structure and interest all year.
✨ Fragrant flowering with a softer, more romantic character for the genus.

Ideal use

🏡 On pergolas, railings and trellises where you want fragrance and flowering without a heavy visual effect.
🪴 In a pot with support for balconies and entrances that need a more elegant climber.
🌸 Near a sitting area or doorway, so you can enjoy the fragrance more easily in summer.

Where to place it

Place it in a warm, bright position with sun or light partial shade, together with some form of support to show off its climbing character properly. 'Star of Sicily' looks fuller and flowers more generously when it has good light and some protection from very cold, exposed winds. In a pot it needs a fertile but well-draining mix and a slightly steadier watering rhythm in summer, especially while it is building new length and flower buds.

What it pairs well with

With sun-loving, Mediterranean-style plants, so the same light and drainage logic is maintained.
With darker or greyer foliage tones, to highlight the delicate pink flowering more clearly.
With neutral pots, natural materials and light supports that allow the flowers to take the lead.

Composition goal: a fragrant, bright climber with soft flowering and a very clean, summery image.

Origin of the cultivar click to read

Taxonomic basis: The species Trachelospermum jasminoides is botanically accepted and belongs to the family Apocynaceae. It is a woody climber from subtropical Asia, with a natural range from west-central and southern Japan through to Vietnam.

Species character: Classic star jasmine is known for its glossy evergreen foliage, twining climbing stems and exceptionally fragrant white flowers. In horticulture it became especially popular because it combines fragrance with coverage.

Character of the selection 'Star of Sicily': This cultivated selection stands out for its soft pink flowers, which often open from pink buds and become paler as they develop. That difference in flower colour is the feature that makes it so distinctive within the genus.

Horticultural value: Like the basic species, it keeps the glossy evergreen foliage and fragrant climbing character, but adds a sweeter, more romantic tone to the flowering. That is why it works especially well on balconies, small pergolas and in spots where flower detail really matters.

1) Potting mix: Plant in a fertile, well-draining mix that retains a little moisture without becoming heavy.

2) Watering: Keep watering steady during the growing season, especially in pots, but let the top layer of soil dry slightly between waterings.

3) Support: Give it a trellis or another support early on so it can shape its climbing frame beautifully.
