    Diminutive Asian jasmine to only 2 ft wide by 6” tall -- can grow larger in time. Orangey stems with tiny, shiny gold leaves, under 1/2”, and creamy, nearly yellow flowers in spring. Wonderful for planter or small scale ground cover. Superb with black mondo grass, but isn’t everything? Shade to sun; can bleach in brightest light. Summer water. Frost hardy to 10 °F, USDA zone 8, or below.
