We have these growing all over in Hawaii :) Now I can snip off a cutting to grow a plant of my own! The smell is HEAVENLY. Summer, you would also LOVE the tree called “puakenikeni” (“Pua” means flower”) the Latin name is: Fragaea berteroana
I live in Australia in a warm to hot climate. I have one of these growing in the garden, mixed up with an Ivy plant. How do I take cuttings to propagate this beauty? Where on the plant do you take the cutting?
@@SnapesDM I think you can propagate it via water and by taking a cutting off of the green part of the stem! Take off a few of the bottom leaves and place her in luke warm (I do a *little bit* warmer than luke warm) water in an area that gets medium indirect light for the first few weeks and introduce her to more light as the roots begin to develop! Summer has suggested to propagate in Sphagnum moss after water propagating and prior to placing her in a new pot of soil. This is what I would do- hope this helps! :)
We have about a half dozen vines growing on one side of the length of our property on a chainlink fence. When the vines develop clusters of flowers it is something to behold. The entire fence is adorned in patches of white with a wonderful smell. The fragrance is much more intense in the evening and the heady perfume fills the night air. We love D. floribundas and so does our neighbor, or perhaps they have no choice on the matter 😊. Did not realize it no longer carries the genus name, Stephanotis.
It is called _Marsdenia floribunda_ now, _Dregea floribunda_ is another plant entirely that get mixed up with it because some botanist once called it _Marsdenia floribunda_ but that name was rejected. Quite confusing.
I’ve heard these have a bad habit of randomly packing up, I’ve found this too. I definitely want to try again though as it has to be pretty much the best indoor scented plant I know.
Unlike the diversity of the closely related Hoyas, I have never seen any other species of Stephanotis in the market. I also find it interesting that many jasmine-like flowers look and smell like jasmine. For instance, Pittosporum, Carissa, Jasmin, Stephanotis, Gardenia and Arabic Jasmin have white flowers which look like Jasmin flowers and even smell pretty much the same. This may be an interesting example of convergent evolution, but I don't know what is the reason behind it.
Oh beautiful! My eyes just about popped out of my head when I saw your plant. Now I want one, I have a new challenge, to find one and to make it rebloom💚🙃
Beautiful plant and lovely flowers! I have both the variegated and non-variegated forms. My non-variegated makes at least 4 seed pods every couple years. And, my variegated plant currently has a seed pod that's nearly mature (finally)! I'd like to see if its seeds produce variegated offspring. Oh! BTW, the species name is actually the "specific epithet", in this case, floribunda, plus the genus.😊
This is a very slow growing jasmine.......compared to the other vining ones...I had a 20ft multiple vine growing up an outdoor staircase going en route to my rooftop garden in Laguna Bch...It took yrs to get that tall outside..the vine was planted in the ground next to the house(the footing of the vine got only mid day sun) say from 11 to 2..and it was in shade(bright light) the rest of the time..it climed to the roof area and then was happy in mid day to afternoon sun at the beach where it never got very hot thanks to the cool Pacific ocean breezes.....It would bloom july thru august then it was done except for stray cluster of blooms. The scent is my favorite jasmine..its a very rich but soft fragrance reminiscent of Easter Lillys but less "green" of a scent...the white waxy star shaped flowers are simple and elegant w/a hefty petal structure. A most remarkable plant not really suited for cold climate winters........unfortunately..where blossoming is not prolific..........It does like cool nights to set buds but never freezing......mainly suited for the climate that is gentle. It will do well also in warmer sunny areas if well established in the ground.........my favorite flower shape..........Good luck w/ur plant........Bob
Well, another beautiful plant that I would love to have in my home, it looks so pretty winding around the hoop, for me I would love it to do this, I love plants that wind themselves around a trellis or a moss pole, for the space I have in my home I need them to either climb or trail, I think that's half the fun finding which plants trail the best or climb the best. Thank you again Summer, I am always learning so much, see you again tomorrow.
They also come with variegated leaves. If you got one with the variegated leaves, it would still be interesting if it didn't flower as often lol. They are pretty easy to grow here in Florida. Mine loves fish fertilizer.
I just bought one of these and I am absolutely in love! and mine is variegated too! how can these be propagated??? and are they related to hoya? possibly in the same family? they look so morphologically similar.
I can't speak to the rest of your questions but I've had lots of success with cutting 4-inch segments with plenty of leaves and nodes, and sticking the ends straight into moist soil
I can totally understand why you had to have that plant :) It's gorgeous and it's not even in bloom yet. I love a Jasmine smell (wondering if you have a Jasmine plant?) I hope it does really well for you.
I had a Jasmine plant probably six years ago but I was in constant battle with scale, so I ended up letting it go :( .... Haven't grown one since! But I do know there are a couple cultivars that are best to grow in the home than others.
Summer Rayne Oakes I had and have the same problem. I keep wiping the leaves with alcohol based wipes every other day or so and it seems like it’s under control now. And it’s reblooming for the 1st time after 2 yrs!
It's really pretty~~~ The white flowers are so pretty. I think they smell better at night. I'm raising one, too. He's so charming. Come and see my Madagascar Jasmine.🌸🌸🥰
Well I'm damned - I didn't know it had changed its Latin name! Every day is a school day. In the UK, at least, it is known as Madagascar Jasmine, which only goes to show how important the Latin names are. (up to date!)
I am trying to work out this change. It seems to me that _Marsdenia floribunda_ (Brongn.) Schltr. is the new name of _Stephanotis floribunda_ Brongn. However it is _Marsdenia floribunda_ (E.Mey.) N.E.Br. that is now called _Dregea floribunda_ E.Mey. (again, presumably). This would explain why you think this plant comes from South Africa. As far as I remember Madagascar Jasmine is only known from a collection on Reunion Island, but I'll have to check that. The Dregea is from south-eastern Africa. Our Stephanotis (Madagascar Jasmine) used to be called _Ceropegia stephanotis_, I don't care if it is wrong I want that name back ;)
None of my usual sources for photos seem to have this _Dregea._ One book of pictures (Natal plants : descriptions and figures of Natal indigenous plants, 1912) has the wrong plant depicted. The description in Flora Capensis has the leaves as only up to 2½ inches long, so almost certainly not our Madagascar Jasmine. Though they record disagreement as to whether the flowers are greenish-yellow or white and report that they smell "fetid, like mice". www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/714262#page/789/mode/1up
I checked and Madagascar Jasmine is only known from one collection from Reunion Island, known as Île Bourbon at the time. Introduced to Paris in 1832 within 7 years it was being produced by florists to meet popular demand from plant lovers. It is still very popular. Just one Dutch nursery has 500,000 plants growing in one greenhouse, with another greenhouse being used to flower them as they reach a saleable size.
You can see how different the herbarium specimen of _Marsdenia floribunda_ (Brongn.) Schltr. ( _Stephanotis floribunda_ Brongn.) is from the Dregea herbarium specimen I linked above: www.tropicos.org/Image/100148986
Thanks Pat for doing some fact checking on this. When I took a look at the Dregea herbarium sheet (that is available online), I also thought the flowers looked different, but with herbarium specimens, sometimes you can't tell since it's dried and then one can't tell whether it's a type specimen. Thanks for adding this and being the volunteer fact checker!
It seems half these videos start with you explaining that the name changed. They should stop doing that. Thank goodness for common names ;) I love that little hoop thing it's on, next time you're over you should tell me which plants I have would do that...oh vines! I have some of those.
Honestly, it's so confusing. And Pat, one of the commenters here, says that the DREGEA E.Mey. floribunda E.Mey was erroneously named Marsdenia floribunda, but are different plants. I'm not sure if that has gotten resolved in any recent published scientific literature or not.
@@summerrayneoakes If you look on Google Scholar and the Biodiversity Heritage Library you will see that _Dregea floribunda_ has been ignored for a century except for appearing on a few checklists. _Stephanotis/Marsdenia floribunda_ gets much more attention. It is news to me but apparently it is found in a tiny area on Madagascar and is currently classed as Vulnerable by the IUCN.

Have never seen a variegated one! What a treat that must be.
Check out Logees, Zone9Tropicals, or Almost Eden Plants. They all carry the Variegated version :)
Should you the plan get "cold" period and if so when and for how long?

@@ehloe. okay! thank you! i'll definitely give it a shot
I've had about 4 plants, they always loose thier leaves and die on me,no matter how much love I gave them.
I want to just ask if this is indoor blood or outdoor plant
If you think getting schlumbergera to reflower is tricky dregea says "hold my beer"🍺😆
no one likes a warm beer.
@@summerrayneoakes Only the English! 😆

I am referring to my Madagascar Jasmine though btw. I guess scale just attacks any plants! Gorgeous Stephanotis btw!
I just bought this last night. It was labeled as Jasmine from Madagascar no wonder it wasn't $50.
just saw this plant at trader joes for $15 with the circle trellis!!!
Bridget Albers me too lol
Omg omg I have to get it
It's really pretty~~~ The white flowers are so pretty. I think they smell better at night. I'm raising one, too. He's so charming. Come and see my Madagascar Jasmine.🌸🌸🥰
Are the flowers edible? Because there is tea call Jasmine tea . Is it the same?
Does this plant work with LECA?
Well I'm damned - I didn't know it had changed its Latin name! Every day is a school day.
In the UK, at least, it is known as Madagascar Jasmine, which only goes to show how important the Latin names are. (up to date!)
Propagation please🤗
hi Summer, wow what a beautiful plant, I haven't seen this plant before, thanks for this video. Love the plant basket also.
Thanks! Got the basket as a vintage one on Etsy. :)
That’s a beauty!👍🏼
I just saw this same plant same size in my local grocery market for 4.99
Pounds? Euros? Rupees?
Were you buy
Shoots google is showing me nothing for sale💚☹️
Dang, I regret not getting this at Trader Joe's when I had the chance!!!
That’s very pretty!

wait Im confused, isn't this plant native to Madagascar?
Yes, and it has not been renamed again, it is still _Marsdenia floribunda._ There is a lot of confusion about taxonomy in the asclepiads.
I bought the same bush and the flowers fell off after 5 days. never blossomed
Stephanotis jasmine yellowing treatment؟؟
Gorgeous. I've never seen it around my area. Thanks for sharing.

Wow looks like a rubber plant
It really annoys me that they always sell them on hoops as well!
I just picked one of these up at Trader Joe’s yesterday. Exact same trellis and size but different pot. They were $16.99
