| I like my arabian tea jasmine, it's very prolific and the flowers smell wonderful! :) And, you can use the flowers to make jasmine water. |

| My fave is j. sambac as well, a close second is Asian jasmine, which isn't botanically a jasmine, it's trachelospermum asiaticum. If I had to pick a vining jasmine, it'd probably be j. tortuosum rather than the grandiflorum types. Ultimately, each nose has to decide for itself! Jim |

I like jasmine molle (jasmine azoricum). The fragrance has hint of gardenia to it. Very vigorous grower and no bug problems indoors. I took this picture this year.

| Thank you ALL for the ah Nosecount oops! Headcount. Jim - Obviously , What works for one proboscus may not work
for another proboscus. These are fascinating results ... that merit further study. |
Where's Picture?

For scent and looks I like Grand Duke of Tuscany. The bloom looks like a small rose and it has the sweetest scent of any of my jasmines.

| khandi, That'sa beautiful sight and probably smell. I'm yearning to see and smell one of my own after reading
about all of yours. I'm trying to pick.... out of all the choices oout there. It's getting easier from your posts and pictures. I should be able to make a decision pretty soon. |

Sib5,
this one is worth buying, you wont regret. It is very easy maintenance indoors in zone 7 or less. It grows to 6ft every summer and I cut it to 3ft before getting it indoors. It is in 10inch pot. |
