Confederate Jasmine is a great plant to use for small Espalier projects around the house. All you need is strong fishing line, some rust-resistant screws or nails and a surface on which to let your creativity run wild. This one is only a few months old and it began life as a 3 (0r maybe 5) gallon nursery plant.
What I love about the Confederate Jasmine is that it that the last 10 inches of each vine has green, plyable, bendable flesh. So, you can easily bend and weave the end of the vines through the fishing line, then over a week or two, the flesh becomes woody and hard and stays where you put it. Make sense?
