Solanum jasminoides 'Album' P25, hangpot

Solanum laxum 'Album' (often sold as Solanum jasminoides 'Album') is a vigorous, semi-evergreen climbing shrub valued for its clusters of starry white flowers with yellow centres produced from mid to late summer into early autumn. Neat green foliage clothes the twining stems, making it ideal for training over a warm, sunny wall, arch or pergola in a moderately fertile, well-drained soil. This climber requires a suitable support to establish and grow. In time, expect an approximate mature height of 5–6m with a spread of about 2–3m when trained, providing elegant vertical interest and seasonal bloom.

This climbing plant has been trained onto a supporting frame to create a neat, well-shaped specimen that is ready for planting. As it grows, new shoots can be guided and secured to continue developing its natural shape.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
