Hello there!
Being a big fan of scones, strawberry jam and clotted cream teas on holidays in Cornwall as a child I couldn't resist this lovely climber.
I planted it last year and its doing really well. It has rich cream coloured flowers which are really special and a heavenly scent. It flowers all summer, likes full sun and a sheltered site though its reasonably hardy. It can grow up to 16 feet tall and is a really posh looking plant!
In my garden its climbing up an iron arch I found in a skip and the idea is that it heads up the arch and into the almond tree above in a few years.
You can buy it from the Sarah Raven website.
Its also known as Devon Cream Jasmine in case you are having difficulty finding it.
Do look out for it.
Caroline
