It is a beautiful plant, featuring hard, colorful leaves. This hardy and perennial plant does well when grown outdoors for ground cover or in pots so that the branches hang down like cascades. Purple jasmine is relatively easy to care for and extremely easy to propagate, a trait that makes them great houseplants.
Steps
Start planting purple jasmine

Determine growing conditions. Purple jasmine is a plant that is native to South America, prefers sunshine and warm temperatures between 13-24 degrees Celsius. This shouldn’t be a problem if you plan to grow it indoors; However, you will have to ensure the right conditions if you want to grow jasmine outdoors. You can refer to part 2 about getting sunlight.
- The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has established a zoning map in the United States based on minimum mean temperatures. Plant species are classified in one or more regions where they grow well. [1] X Sources For example, purple jasmine grows best in zones 9 through 11. According to USDA maps, much of the southern United States and the West Coast belong to these three regions. You should check this map to see if the temperature in your area is warm enough to grow jasmine if you plan to grow it outdoors.
- If you do not live in USDA zones 9-11, keep in mind that you may not be able to grow purple jasmine outdoors during the winter. Maybe you need to grow houseplants.

Choose the right pot. You can use a regular planter with a drip tray or hanging basket. Whichever type you choose, you’ll need to make sure there’s a drainage hole.
- If using a hanging basket, be sure to rotate the basket daily so that the plants receive an even amount of light.
- Remember to choose a pot that is not too heavy, especially if you plan to hang it. Perhaps you should choose plastic pots over ceramic pots for this reason. Lighter pots will make it easier for you to move into your home in the event of a frost.

Plant purple jasmine in a pot. Fill the pot 2/3 full with potting soil, then place the plant in the center of the pot. Put soil around and fill the pot. Lightly press the soil around the plant and water until the soil is completely moist.
- You can buy purple jasmine at many gardeners. Cuttings are also an effective way to grow plants. You will have to take some jasmine stems that have been cut from a mature tree. You also need to learn how to grow cuttings from mature trees.
Take care of plant
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/ee/Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4- 460px-Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/ee/ Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-4-Version-2. jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Provide enough light for the plant. If possible, allow the plant to receive both direct and indirect light.
- An east-facing window sill is a good place to plant jasmine. The plant will receive strong, indirect light throughout the day, but you need to make sure the spot doesn’t get too hot in the afternoon. If it’s hot, move the pot away from the window, or use curtains to filter out the light. [2] X Research Source
- If the plant lives mostly outdoors, find a spot with indirect light. This location could be a hallway that receives a few hours of morning sunlight. Just remember that most of the day do not leave the plant in direct sunlight without shade.

Water the plants regularly. Purple jasmine loves moist soil, but they don’t want to be submerged in water! Every day, you need to check by poking your finger in the ground. If the soil feels dry, water enough to fully moisten the soil. Excess water will drain out through the perineum.
- If there is a drip tray under the pot, be sure to empty the water when the dish is full.
- Remember not to water the top of the plant directly to avoid rotting the top. [3] X Research Source You can water less during the winter months, when the plants grow slowly. [4] X Research Source You just need to let the soil dry a little longer before watering.
- Some people find it convenient to use an automatic watering ball that plugs into a potted plant; however, these glass spheres need to be cleaned and refilled frequently. You will still have to monitor the humidity of the plant if you choose this way.

Fertilize plants periodically. Every two weeks, you can use liquid fertilizer 10-10-10 diluted with an equal amount of water to fertilize the plant. [5] X Research Sources
- 10-10-10 Liquid Fertilizer is a multi-purpose fertilizer consisting of 10% nitrogen, 10% phosphorus and 10% potassium. [6] X Research Source You need to read the instructions on the package carefully, as some liquid fertilizers are actually powdered and must be mixed with water.
- Fertilization is only necessary during the plant’s strongest growing season, from spring to early fall.

Prune trees. To help prevent the tree from becoming thin, cut off the branches above the leaf’s eyes. Don’t be afraid to cut too much! You can cut away 1/4 of the tree. This will stimulate the plant to sprout new shoots instead of continuing to elongate through the tendrils. [7] X Research Sources
- The best times to prune trees are the spring and summer months, when the tree is at its peak growth. After pruning, give the plant a chance to sprout new shoots and thrive.
- If you find the tree too dense and overgrown, you will need to prune around the base of the tree so that it receives enough air and light.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/06/Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-8.jpg/v4-460px-Take- Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/06/Take-Care-of-a- Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Remove dead, diseased and rotting leaves. Eventually the plant will stop growing leaves at the base but will continue to grow tassels, and at that point you may need to remodel and re-pot the plant. [8] X Research Source To do this, you can plant cuttings, stick a few shoots in water, or simply place the branches above the ground. [9] X Research Source
Common problems and solutions
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/bb/Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-9.jpg/v4-460px-Take- Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/bb/Take-Care-of-a- Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-9.jpg/v4-728px-Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Eliminate aphids. The young shoots of the purple jasmine plant often attract tiny green insects called aphids. They usually appear near the trunk of a tree. An effective treatment is to pluck or cut off branches infested with aphids and spray plenty of water on the rest of the tree. [10] X Research Source You can also use a hose or high-pressure jet to dislodge aphids from leaves.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/87/Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-10.jpg/v4-460px-Take- Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-10.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/87/Take-Care-of-a- Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-10.jpg/v4-728px-Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-10.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Refresh the brown leaves. Mist the plant regularly. When the humidity drops, the leaves will turn brown, but you can help keep them healthy by misting them regularly. Wet leaves will also help get rid of aphids that can live on the plant. Just fill a spray bottle with water and mist until the leaves are slightly damp.
- Brown leaves can also be a sign that the plant has been exposed to too much sun. In this case, you need to remember not to expose the plant to direct sunlight by moving the pot away or installing a light-filtering material between the plant and the window, such as curtains.
- Try to use distilled or bottled water when misting the leaves for best results.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/aa/Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-11.jpg/v4-460px-Take- Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-11.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/aa/Take-Care-of-a- Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-11.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Restores discolored leaves. The lack of vitality and color of the leaves is probably due to the lack of sunlight. [11] X Research Source You should gradually increase the amount of sunlight so that the plant does not get shocked. You can move the pot closer to a window so it gets more light, or find a sunny spot in your yard for it.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/b7/Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-12.jpg/v4-460px-Take- Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-12.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/b7/Take-Care-of-a- Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Take-Care-of-a-Wandering-Jew-Plant-Step-12.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Remove rotting roots. If the plant is discolored but the leaves are turning pale yellow, the plant is probably waterlogged and the roots are rotting. [12] X Research Source If this happens, the plant may not produce as many new shoots, if any. You will have to cut off the rotting part and cut a branch from the healthy part of the plant to replant.
Warning
- Be careful. The sap of the jasmine plant can cause skin irritation in humans and allergies in dogs. [13] X Research Source
