Variant

Jasmine Sambac, also known as Arabian Jasmine, Maid of Orleans Jasmine, or Sampaguita, is a highly fragrant, evergreen vine native to South and Southeast Asia. It is revered for its glossy green foliage and intensely aromatic, small, white, star-shaped flowers that bloom from mid spring to mid fall. These blooms are not only visually appealing but are also used extensively in perfumes, teas, and traditional garlands. Jasmine Sambac is particularly popular in the Philippines, where it is the national flower and symbolizes purity, simplicity, humility, and strength.

What to expect

The plant comes with a default nursery pot. The nursery pot is usually 0.5" - 1" smaller than stated to fit into the same size decorative pot. Washable Paper Planter Bags are sold separately.

As with all living things, no two plants are alike. There is some natural variation in size, shape, and characteristics. We make every effort to bring you a plant that as closely as possible matches the plant as it appears on our website, in the size you have chosen, and have a good potential to happily grow in your home.

Pro tips

Since Jasmine Sambac grows rapidly, pruning will be necessary to keep the plant in shape, encourage branching, and help bloom. The best time to do so would be late spring and mid summer, pruning about half an inch back. Jasmine Sambac plants drop leaves, or they dry up, from both too much and too little water, so make sure you are watering accordingly. They will also tend to drop their buds after going through an environmental change, so try to keep their care very stable. Keep them away from drafts and dry air, but make sure they are not kept too warm, as high temperatures will encourage growth but not bloom production.

Care Guide

How to take care of Jasmine Sambac

Sun: Direct & Indirect

Jasmine Sambac enjoys some direct sun, but they'll also do well in bright, indirect light. It is best to place this plant somewhere where it will receive some nice morning sun, or a couple hours of afternoon sun, and then indirect light the rest of the day.

Light: Bright

Jasmine Sambac will do best in bright light. A nice bright place inside your home would be on the window sill or a stool that is right next to a window, either with or without blinds, depending on if the plant can handle sun. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When half dry

Jasmine Sambac needs to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Humidity: High

Jasmine Sambac likes a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.

Pet Friendly

You can feel comfortable having Jasmine Sambac around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants.

Plant Story

Introducing Jasmine Sambac, also known as Arabian Jasmine, Maid of Orleans, or Sampaguita. This enchanting and fragrant houseplant not only fills your space with a delightful aroma but also symbolizes purity, love, and the soothing tranquility of nature.

Jasmine Sambac is celebrated for its intensely fragrant, white, star-shaped flowers that bloom throughout the year, especially in warmer climates. These blossoms are not only a visual treat but are also commonly used in the making of perfumes and teas, prized for their sweet, captivating scent. The plant's evergreen, vining growth habit allows it to be a versatile addition to any garden, whether trained on a trellis, grown along a fence, or maintained in a hanging basket.

To care for your Jasmine Sambac, provide it with bright, indirect light and a warm environment. It thrives in conditions that mimic its native tropical habitat, which means plenty of warmth and humidity. This requirement reminds us of the importance of creating and maintaining the right environment to nurture growth and bloom.

Watering should be consistent, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged. Jasmine Sambac's preference for slightly moist conditions teaches us the value of balance and moderation—providing just enough resources to sustain and encourage flowering without overwhelming the plant.
