HI I have got a winter jasmine that i bought last yr and its looking a
bit sorry for itself, when i bought it it had white flowers on and the
leaves were a lovely dark shiny green.

White flowers and lovely dark shining leaves sounds more like summer
flowering jasmine . If so, that's why it is flowerless atm.(it climbs by
twining stems)

Winter jasmine has insignificant leaves, yellow flowers in spring and
the stems are stiff, non-twining.

Janet.

Have a look at jasminum nudiflorum then try Jasminum polyanthum
A big differance between them, there is a white winter flowering
jasmin but like Janet I think you have the summer flowering Jasminum
polyanthum.

GardenersWorld say that polyanthum is "winter and early spring
flowering" but requires shelter.
