Jasminum polyanthum, commonly known as Jasmine, is a vigorous evergreen climber celebrated for its fragrant white flowers. To ensure your jasmine thrives, consider the following care tips:

1. Sunlight: Provide your jasmine with at least 6 hours of sunlight daily. While it can tolerate some shade, reduced light may lead to leggy growth and fewer blooms. In regions with intense sun, especially inland areas, it's advisable to offer partial shade during the hottest part of the day to prevent leaf scorch.

2. Watering: Maintain consistently moist soil, particularly during the flowering season. Allowing the soil to dry out can cause flowers and buds to wither prematurely. Deep watering every two weeks is beneficial once the plant is established, but frequency may vary based on your local climate and indoor conditions.

3. Pruning: Prune your jasmine immediately after flowering to encourage healthy growth and abundant blooms in the following season. Avoid pruning later in the year, as this may remove developing flower buds.

   By adhering to these guidelines, your Jasminum polyanthum can flourish, enhancing your space with its lush foliage and delightful fragrance.
