Comments:

Underused in tree form this tough plant makes a nice urban tree for small soil spaces. Drainage is key in growing a healthy tree. Once pruned into tree form, Orange Jasmine is low-maintenance. Fruits are considered invasive, but use in urban areas should not be tempered by this fact.

Sidewalks, parking lots, streets, specimen

Maintenance:

$$$
