Fast growing

These are lovely, and so fragrant. Are you putting this outside, orkeeping it in a pot? I have a link for you. The woman who writes thearticle, had one in a pot for years, saying she only fertilized it 2xper year. The fertilizer label #s refer to amounts of eachelement.N-P- K. The higher middle # - for potassium, is what you want,to promote bloom, and fruit. Follow the directions, if you choose to buy a prepared chemicalfertilizer, for correct amount to mix with water. You might run intoproblems if the water is too cold, in winter, or if your tap water istoo acid or alkaline, depending on the plant's needs. Some plants dobetter on filtered water, or water which has stood overnight, to getto room temp, and to let some of the chlorine gas out. Try to find anorganic feed, though. There are many on the market now, and the growthwill be much healthier.Ask an organic grower which is best. Maybe aseaweed fertilizer, or just good compost added in spring, right ontop, will be enough.Osmocote is a safe, easy, no mix, slow release pellet, so I use it onmy house plants in spring. It feeds gradually. You add based upon sizeof the plant's pot. You don't want to overfeed it, so, find out if ithas already been fed, before giving it more. If you want to pot it into a bigger pot, with some gravel at the verybottom, for drainage, mix some aged compost& manure with a storebought soil-less mix, or purchased rich loam. I think it would want tobe acidic, and might like to be kept evenly moist, but I don't knowfor sure. If so, you might add sphagnum moss to the mix, and don't letit get dry below the top 2" or so. Keep it near sunlight in winter, or provide grow lights. It will liketo go out in summer, if you can manage it. Do give it time togradually build up to the sun, in 15 min. increments at a time, indappled sun, ideally, for it's first exposure, or permanently. If it'skept in a pot, it may not be able to take full sun all day unless youwater it a lot, which will help if you use the gradual releasingpellet, so it always gets some food with each watering.If the soil is good, and it has been fed, then, you won't feed it fora while, and prune to keep the shape you want. You may want to getsome pruners, with a tapered tip - like for a Bonsai. Bonsai growersor stores where they sell Bonsai tools will be a help, there. Afterthe flowers, don't prune, allow the berries to form, if you like them. I found a description in an old catalog. It is also called OrangeJessamine / Murraya paniculata - zones 9 - 10. Full sun(if planted, orwatched)to part sun /" Upright evergreen shrub. Glossy light greenfoliage. Fragrant bell-shaped, pure white flowers in early summer.Fast growing( that's where the pruning comes in),good quick filler.NEEDS RICH SOIL, AMPLE WATER, FREQUENT FEEDINGS - good soil + a goodorganic feed, then. mature size;6'high x 4' spread.You could prune itfrom the sides, then trim back the top. It could be kept for manyyears as a topiary in a pot, in a rounded side - wider at the bottom,or flat sided, slightly wider at the bottom, in an obelisk form. Youmight like to keep the height from 2' to 3.5 ', and allow the sides towiden, and keep it in a rounded top dome shape - thinking of thesurface area of each design, covered with flowers, then berries, andwhich shape you like the best.I think you can grow plants from 3 - 5 " cuttings of Jasmine , but notsure.Hope this helps. Now I'm thinking I'd like one too. There aredifferent types, so I'll be looking into the various types. Yours willhave tons of orange oval berries. Maybe you can try growing from seed,if you let berries mature and age to a shrivel.'Hope you enjoy this plant for many years. If you tire of pruning itand re-potting it every few years, it would do well in a warm climategarden, where it can grow a bit more, and still get pruned, but lessextremely.It would be a good focal point in a garden - espedially inbloom. The blooms will stay longer if you take the plant out of thesun, just as the blooms are opening, then back into the sun to produceberries.
