Stephan Jasmine
Jasminum x stephanense
Pickup currently unavailable at Aiken Nursery
Jasminum x stephanense, the Stephan jasmine, is the rare pink-flowered hybrid of the group, a cross between the red jasmine, Jasminum beesianum, and the poet's jasmine, Jasminum officinale. The vigorous, semi-evergreen scrambling vine carries small, soft pink, fragrant flowers over slender stems clothed in fine pinnate leaves, combining the pink of one parent with the hardiness and perfume of the other.
The hybrid was raised in France, and, remarkably, has also been found growing wild in western China where the two parent species meet, a natural and garden cross arrived at twice over. Seldom seen in American gardens, Stephan jasmine remains a collector's plant. Hillier's Manual of Trees and Shrubs notes that this is a beautiful plant where space permits its full development, such as when covering an outbuilding.
The appeal is the color and the scent together: soft pink jasmine flowers are uncommon, and these carry a genuine fragrance over a long late-spring and summer season. The plant is vigorous and wants room, scrambling readily up a fence, over a wall, or through a large shrub, building a dense, fine-textured tangle.
Give Stephan jasmine a substantial support and room to run, a large trellis, an arbor, a fence, or an old outbuilding to cover, in full sun to part shade and well-drained soil. Site the vine where the pink flowers and fragrance can be enjoyed, and prune after flowering to keep the vigorous growth in bounds. Pair with white or red jasmines for a run of jasmine color and scent.

From rooting to shipping, our top priority is ensuring you receive healthy, thriving plants for your garden’s success.
Because most of our plants are grown from rooted cuttings — alongside seed, air layering, and grafting chosen for each variety — you receive a stronger, true-to-type plant that establishes quickly in your garden.
Raised on organic soil blends and eco-friendly pest management — never harsh chemicals — your plant arrives healthy for your garden, your family, and the pollinators they feed.
Every purchase gives back. We donate to the Aiken Arboretum and support local wildlife conservation, so growing your garden helps protect the wider ecosystem too.
All our plant material is carefully propagated, grown, and nurtured at our humble nursery in Aiken, South Carolina.
Your plant arrives carefully packed and ready to settle in. Unpack them promptly, give them a day or two to acclimate, then plant following the notes we include — that’s all it takes. Clear care guidance comes with every order, so success is the easy part.
What to expect upon delivery
All our plants are sold in 1-gallon sizes, though the height of each plant can vary depending on its growth rate and seasonality, typically ranging from 1/2 to 2.5 feet.
