Information
With slender, twining stems and glossy green leaves, Solanum jasminoides Album is an evergreen climber which will cover itself in glorious clusters of bright white, scented star-shaped flowers in the summer and autumn. A strong growing plant that is difficult to contain by pruning so give it space to spread and go wild!
While it prefers a free draining soil it will do well on most soils, so long as drainage is improved.
