Trachelospermum asiaticum Pink Air

Trachelospermum asiaticum 'Pink Air' is an evergreen, twining climber valued for its glossy green foliage and richly fragrant, star-shaped summer flowers. This climber requires a suitable support to establish and grow. Ideal for training over sheltered walls, fences, arches or pergolas, it thrives in sun or light shade and in fertile, well-drained soil. Given time and the right conditions, it can reach approximately 4–5m in height with a spread of about 2–3m.

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.
