The Carolina Jasmine isn't blooming yet in my neck of the woods so I had to go back to a shot from another year. Click for the home of ABC Wednesday.

    Oh I really want to feel and smell these in real time. They are so pretty--can you tell I'm ready for spring.

    I bet the bees have the location to this bush well mapped. I've never seen this kind of plant in person and can only guess how nice it smells

    We planted jasmine several years ago. It must not like our climate, it is still alive but hasn't grown much and only had a couple of blooms last year.

    I love jasmine!!! We too are having a long winter and late spring. I like the cold (a lot better than the heat), but I am ready for some nice, warm sun.

    I did Jasmine too. They are so lovely and the fragrance is heavenly. I researched them last year and found there are a variety of types. Love your photo!!

    How lovely, - Jasmine is very popular today and the shrub version is wonderful in the spring time. I had one in the garden before the garden before last, and loved it.

    Never knew of this 'version' of jasmine! I hv always identified jasmine with white short flowers....

    Carver, this takes me back to both L.A. and Bermuda, where the jasmine flourished for months on end. The smell is heaven and the blossoms never fail to make me smile. Thanks for this lovely photo, because it's undoubtedly the only Jasmine I'll see here in Wisconsin, ha ha. Amy
