House Plants August 2011

The amazing elephant pot was found sitting next to the apartment complex trash. It is in perfect condition with no cracks or chips. Such a great find!

Trachelospermum Asiaticum: Variegated Asian Jasmine

This is a hardy plant with beautifully variegated white and green leaves.
Commonly used as a ground cover, can also be trained to trellises and fences.
Invasive in some climates/zones if not properly up kept and controlled.
Medium water requirements.
I bought this as a solution to the drought. It is heat tolerant and I only water it once or twice a week and it continues to thrive.
