I just planted some Asiatic Jasmine two weeks ago. It is not growing

doing wrong?



Not for this plant... ;-)


That's right. I have half an acre of the stuff under heavily filtered
sunlight (mostly shade really) and under live oaks. It is incredibly
strong. Should probably classify it as aggressively invasive, as it'll
quickly climb over just about anything. I water it once or twice during
the summer, and throw some handfuls af fertilizer on it occasionally
(though it really doesn't need it, and I'm probably just encouraging it
unnecessarily). It's my 18-inch deep ground cover!

Do consider that this is a plant that loves shade. If you have sun
blazing down on it, it may not do as well. Mine tends to avoid sunlit
areas.

Mine doesn't seem to care as long as it gets enough water. ;-)

And yes, it can get to be pretty invasive...
