A true gem for those who get the itch for flowers before spring comes. Jasminum nudiflorum blooms in late winter on otherwise bare branches with a cascade of bright yellow flowers. Fully hardy to zone 6, Winter Jasmine has a mounding or arching habit but can be trained on a trellis where it can get much taller than 10 feet. Prune as desired.
