Description

Jasmine Sambac 'Belle of India' is an exquisite and highly fragrant cultivar of Arabian Jasmine, legendary for its role in the perfume and tea industries of Southeast Asia. What makes 'Belle of India' a standout in the Jasmine family is its unique flower structure: unlike the common rounded varieties, this cultivar produces elegant, elongated, pure-white double blooms with narrow, starry petals.

As a "twining" evergreen, it can be grown as a sprawling, lush shrub or trained upward as a climbing vine. Throughout the warmer months—and often year-round in tropical climates—the plant produces clusters of intensely aromatic flowers that open in the evening and release a heavenly, sweet perfume that can fill an entire garden or room.

Quick Facts:

  • Foliage: Glossy, deep green, oval leaves that provide a rich, evergreen backdrop for the snowy white blossoms.

  • Flower: Large, 1–2 inch double white flowers with distinctively long, slender petals. The fragrance is incredibly potent and "classic jasmine."

  • Light: Thrives in Full Sun to Partial Shade. In extremely hot regions, dappled afternoon shade helps maintain the deep green color of the foliage.

  • Growth Habit: A versatile grower that typically reaches 4–6 feet as a shrub, but can climb up to 8–10 feet if provided with a trellis or support.

  • Hardiness: USDA Zones 9–11. In cooler climates, it is a premier choice for container gardening and can be easily moved indoors for the winter.

  • Landscape Use: Ideal for planting near patios, entryways, or bedroom windows where the evening fragrance can be appreciated. It is also non-toxic and pet-friendly.

Pro Tip: To get the most out of your 'Belle of India', remember that heat and light are the primary drivers for blooming. If your plant isn't flowering, move it to a brighter, warmer spot.
