Question 1

Why do I need to fertilize my Common jasmine?

Accepted Answer

You need to fertilize a Common jasmine for a few important reasons. The most obvious of these reasons is that fertilizer will help your Common jasmine produce lovely blooms.

Question 2

When is the best time to fertilize my Common jasmine?

Accepted Answer

Timing is crucial when it comes to fertilizing Common jasmine. If you use fertilizer too early while the Common jasmine is still dormant at this time. This fertilizer cannot be used effectively and will be washed away by rainwater, causing waste and pollution. The first application of fertilizer should be applied in the early spring.

Question 3

When should I avoid fertilizing my Common jasmine?

Accepted Answer

Avoid giving Common jasmine a fertilizer with too much nitrogen, since this can lead to development of plenty of leaves but not many blooms. Look for fertilizer with a lower level of nitrogen compared to other nutrients.

Do not fertilize after the early autumn, which can cause too much growth just before winter. Also, Common jasmine should not be fertilized during hot and dry times of year, since dry soil does not deliver fertilizer as effectively as moist soil. Fertilizing at this time can also stimulate growth which in turn needs more water that may not be available. It is best to keep fertilizer for earlier in the season when temperatures are cooler.

Finally, remember that Common jasmine can absorb fertilizer that has been applied to nearby plants or lawns, so be cautious about inadvertently giving tree/shurb a double-dose of fertilizer.

Question 4

What type of fertilizer does my Common jasmine need?

Accepted Answer

Some experienced gardeners will supplement 1-2 times with water-soluble fertilizers containing phosphorus when the flower buds start to appear. This will help the flowers develop better and allow them to grow larger and bloom longer.

Regardless of which you use, you should ensure that you dilute your fertilizer and apply it while watering your Common jasmine.

Question 5

What happens if I fertilize my Common jasmine too much?

Accepted Answer

It is far better to under-fertilize than over-fertilize, since you can always add more but you cannot easily take away excess fertilizer. Over-fertilizing your Common jasmine may cause brown leaf tips and edges, yellowing, wilting leaves, and possibly a visible crust of fertilizer salts on the surface of the soil around the tree. This condition is called fertilizer burn and results from too many accumulated salts in the plant’s cells. If excess nitrogen is the issue, the Common jasmine will produce a lot of leaves but won’t grow much flowers since nitrogen supports foliage growth.

If you have overfertilized, you could try removing the top layer of soil under the Common jasmine to remove the most concentrated area of fertilizer. Then flush the area by watering heavily to try to get rid of fertilizer around the roots.
