What to do with an unwanted Jasmine

Today I decided to dig out my pink jasmine as it was getting to big for my small garden , been try before to keep it under controll with heavy pruning , but it seam that I just made it stronger , so today I dig it out.
Don`t want to through it away and it`s to big to post it and sent it away.



should I transform it in one of this ?

 

Hate to say it but digging it out most likely won't get rid of it, it will grow back from the ground.. it laughs off herbicides too.

How did you get Pink Jasmine through the winters there? It's usually too tender to overwinter in most places.

However if you want to make a plant from that it's a good idea I think. A Bonsai Jasmine.

 

Time ago a bought a set of three jasmine , the yellow , pink and white ......the white has been growing outdoor happy untill 2010 , the yellow seams to die in winter and come back every summer , but the pink seams to just don`t care about the cold .....it`s really hard .

 

Take some cuttings and offer the rest on freegle.

 

Catztail would you like a pink jasmine , why would I take cutting of a plant that I`m giving away

 

No thank you Sal......... I think jasmine smells like wee........ eeeewwwww. You could use the cuttings to have a go at the bonsai.

 

Sal are you talking about pink flowered Jasmine ie Jasminum x stephanense, the small pink flowered Jasminum beesianum or Pink Jasmine with white flowers, as in the popular house plant Jasminum polyanthum?

The white will be Jasminum officinale
The yellow will be Jasminum humile.. which is evergreen here.. unless you mean Jasminum nudiflorum which flowers in winter on bare stems?

 

None of them Stephen , no the yellow not the pink .....by the way I keep calling yellow jasmine , but after 2010 has changed color (I think it was crafted and then the top died)
the flower are now pink as well .

the pink jasmine I think is just a jasminoids , not a true jasmine ....

 

Now im confused

 

look at the picture , actually is in flower as well.

 

Oh that is Jasminum beesianum

Mine stays evergreen, how about yours?

The roots are not invasive as I first suggested.. Jasminum polyanthum has the very very invasive roots.. I thought that's what you meant first.

 

yes that is it , mine stay evergreen .....well before yesterday .

still don`t know what to do with it ? it`s a such of vigorous plants , that can hold lots of frost and cold , it would be a real shame to let it die ....

 

why dont you offer it to your neighbours? Or you could take a cutting, and put it in a pot, and then sink the pot into the ground.. that might stop the spread a bit.

It is hardy to -15C but becomes deciduous below -8C.

 

Ok then and Bonsai it gone be
