Summer Sunset Asiatic Jasmine is a colorful spreading woody evergreen perennial that can be used for climbing or a groundcover. The glossy foliage emerges red and turns creamy white before maturing to marbled dark green with shades of yellow, red, and orange variegation. Small fragrant creamy white flowers that age to yellow bloom in summer. Best color with full sun and well-drained soils, where with shade the colors are more green with cream and some orange. Drought tolerant once established.
