Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Producing exceptionally fragrant, very double , large flowers , to 2" across are composed of up to what could be a hundred individual creamy white petals in an often slightly looser flower form, yet still dense, than that of the more common Grand Duke of Tuscany. Grand Duke Supreme Sambac Jasmine has in our experience been a more vigorous grower and may be slightly more free flowering than its namesake. This is a highly sought after and rewarding plant that was shared with us by the late Asma Khan and was one of her most prized forms of this true Jasmine species. Grand Duke Supreme Jasmine sports deep green foliage that acts as the perfect foil for the bright creamy white flowers.
