This loose, rangy, arching shrub can reach about 12' high and has light green, glossy leaves. Very fragrant, small white flowers provide a sweet evening scent in summer and fall. Night Jessamine benefits from strong pruning after bloom to keep size and weak branch structure under control. White berries are poisonous.

Planting Instructions: 1. Dig a hole 2 times the width and 1 and 1/2 times the height of the container. 2. Set rootball at ground level. 3. Prepare soil mix of equal parts soil and soil amendment. 4. Backfill with amended soil. 5. Build Basin and water.
