Planting & Care

Where to Plant

Sunlight: Plant in a location with at least six hours of direct sun for heaviest blooming, though it adapts to four to six hours of sun with slightly reduced flower production.

Soil: Prefers well-drained average soil. In clay-heavy ground, amend with compost and coarse sand or plant in a slightly raised area to prevent water from pooling around roots. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.

Watering Requirements

Water twice weekly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, this jessamine tolerates heat and dry spells remarkably well, typically needing water only during extended drought. Consistent moisture produces the most prolific blooming, but avoid soggy conditions.

Pruning Tips

Prune lightly in early spring just as new growth emerges to shape the plant and encourage bushier growth. Since it blooms on new wood, spring pruning won't sacrifice flowers. Deadheading spent blooms throughout the season encourages continuous flowering and keeps the plant looking tidy.

Fertilizer Needs

Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring as growth begins and again in mid-summer to fuel the long bloom season. A formula like 10-10-10 works well. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers which push leafy growth at the expense of flowers.

Understanding Our Container Sizes

At Nature Hills, our plants are sold in industry-standard nursery containers. You will notice we use the word "container" rather than "gallon." Container numbers follow a nursery trade size standard, not liquid volume. The number tells you the plant's size category and general maturity level. A larger container means a more established plant with a stronger root system.

Container Sizes

Quart

Plant age: 6 months to 1 year
Best for: Ground covers, perennials, ornamental grasses
What to expect: Our smallest and most affordable size. Well-suited for planting in multiples across a large area. Allow 1 to 2 seasons for full establishment.

#1 Container

Plant age: 1 to 2 years
Best for: Shrubs, perennials, smaller trees
What to expect: About the size of a large coffee can. A well-developed root system in a manageable size. Good value choice when you have time to let the plant grow into the space over a season or two.

#2 Container

Plant age: 2 to 3 years
Best for: Shrubs and trees where you want faster establishment
What to expect: A noticeable step up from a #1 in both plant size and root development. Good choice when you want visible presence without going to a larger size.

#3 Container

Plant age: 3 to 4 years
Best for: Most plants, most situations — flowering trees, shade trees, evergreen shrubs
What to expect: Our most popular size. Strong, developed root system. Plants in a #3 container make an immediate visual impact from day one. If you want a head start rather than waiting seasons for a plant to fill in, this is typically the right choice.

#5 Container and Larger

Plant age: 4 to 5+ years
Best for: Specimen plants, privacy screens, maximum instant impact
What to expect: Large, mature plants ready to make an immediate statement in your landscape. We also carry #7 and larger sizes for select varieties.

Why "Container" and Not "Gallon"?

Nursery container sizes follow an industry trade standard established for the nursery and horticulture industry. The number is a size designation, not a measurement of liquid volume. Actual soil volume varies by plant type, root mass, and growing medium. Using "container" is the accurate industry term. When you see #1, #2, or #3, think of it as the plant's size tier, not a gallon measurement.

Root Pouch Containers

Some Nature Hills plants arrive in a Root Pouch, a breathable fabric container made from 100% recycled materials. Root Pouches encourage denser root development through air pruning, which discourages root circling and promotes a stronger, more fibrous root ball at the time of planting.

There are two types. Knowing which one you have changes how you plant:

Degradable (brown or tan fabric): Plant the entire pouch directly in the ground. The fabric breaks down naturally in the soil over time.
Non-degradable (black or gray fabric): Remove the pouch before planting. Cut the bottom open with scissors, then peel the sides away. The fibrous root ball will hold its shape.

Not sure which type you have? Check the tag on your plant or contact us and we will confirm.

Juiced® Orange Jessamine (Cestrum corymbosum 'WNCESCORYEL') brings the irresistible charm of a creamsicle right into your garden with tubular flowers that glow in shades of light orange. Each bloom is conveniently bundled into rounded clusters that look like cheerful little pom-poms hovering above glossy green foliage. Hummingbirds zero in on these tubular treasures from late spring through late summer, often returning multiple times a day once they discover this reliable nectar source.

Year-Round Appeal in Warmer Zones

In zones 7-10 where it's hardy, this evergreen shrub maintains its lush green foliage throughout the year, providing structure and texture even when not in bloom. The naturally mounded habit reaches 4 to 5 feet tall with a 3 to 4 foot spread, making it substantial enough to anchor a planting but not so large it overwhelms smaller gardens. The foliage emerges a fresh light green and maintains that brightness, creating a lovely backdrop for the warm-toned flowers.

Perfect for Pollinator Gardens

Beyond hummingbirds, Juiced® Orange Jessamine invites butterflies and native bees to visit throughout its extended bloom period. The fragrant flowers add another dimension to the sensory experience, releasing a sweet perfume that's noticeable but not overwhelming. Deer tend to pass this plant by, making it a smart choice for gardens where browsing is an issue.

Easy-Care Beauty

Once established, this Proven Winners® selection lives up to its easy-care reputation. It handles heat and drought with minimal fuss, though consistent moisture encourages the heaviest flowering. The evergreen nature means you're never left with bare stems waiting for spring, and the long bloom season means you get months of color and pollinator activity rather than a brief two-week show.

Landscape Uses

Use Juiced® Orange Jessamine as a foundation plant near patios or walkways where you can enjoy the fragrance and watch hummingbirds feed. It works beautifully in mixed borders paired with purple salvias or blue plumbago for a vibrant hot-and-cool color scheme. In containers, it serves as a thriller with its upright habit and long-lasting blooms. Mass plantings create a stunning hedge of color and fragrance that provides privacy while supporting pollinators.

This jessamine proves that easy care doesn't mean boring. It delivers consistent color, fragrance, wildlife value, and evergreen structure with minimal intervention required from you.
