Asiatic Jasmine is a low-maintenance, woody groundcover known for its thick mat of small, glossy green leaves. It spreads steadily by vining stems and creates a clean, uniform carpet in shady beds, beneath trees, along slopes, or in high-traffic areas. While it rarely flowers, its dense foliage is the main attraction—resistant to heat, cold, drought, and foot traffic. Once established, it requires little water or upkeep, making it ideal for erosion control and low-water landscapes. It performs well in both full sun and deep shade.
