I don't know about Madagascar Jasmine, but Confederate Jasmin has
flowers and leaves along the entire length of its stem, making it really
nice as a screen.

I'm sure there are other jasmins out there that can do as well - but
when you live in the deep south, you plant Confederate Jasmin. big grin

You're disgusting and vulgar. Go away!

I do want to thank all of the people that made a legitimate effort to
help. I picked up a few ideas. The picture of the trellis was very
nice and I like the idea of a vignette or small water feature.

Thanks very much,

I don't get PMS any more! I'm glad you got some good ideas. This
newsgroup has been here for more than a decade and some of us, me
included have been here for over a dozen years or more. Sometimes
people "get" the humor, some not so much. I'm smiling.

Hi Yan:

According to the brief research I did, Confederate jasmin has nothing
to do with the confederacy... Additionally, according to:

Well, yes and no.
There are many plants called "jasmine" or jessamine"

Jasmine: Jasminum many species 15 in one reference.
none listed as poisonous. Arabian jasmine is used for tea.

Night Jessamine: Cestrum nocturnum yes it is toxic

Carolina Jessamine (Jasmine) Gelsimum sempervirens,
yes it is toxic

Confederate/Star Jasmine: Tracelospermum jasminoides
I don't find any toxic listing on my cooperative extension list.
