Jasminum officinale ‘Fiona Sunrise’
Jasminum officinale ‘Fiona Sunrise’ has bright gold compound leaves and fragrant white flowers.
Jasminum officinale ‘Fiona Sunrise’ is a lovely and still somewhat uncommon vine in our gardens. This summer jasmine has delicate compound leaves of bright gold (lime green in part shade) which creates a foliar show of both stunning texture and colour. The fragrant white blossoms are an added bonus. This is a good climber for a wall or pergola in a protected location and in containers. Plant with purple or pink flowered clematis or grow it through a purple-leaved smoke bush or the similarly textured Sambucus ‘Black Lace’!
