I pruned my Star Jasmine vine after flowering last spring but it was in need of a 2nd trim. Nothing too severe; just a little the pruning & shaping in early fall. Be sure not to prune too heavily or too late into fall because it'll mess with the blooming next spring.

The best time to prune Star Jasmine, or Tracelospermum jasminoides, is soon after it flowers. It has a twining, wandering growth habit & wants to grab onto anything it can. Sometimes you need to prune it once or twice more during the growing season just to keep it from going too crazy. Today I’m talking about pruning & shaping my Star Jasmine Vine in fall; October 19th to be exact.
I escaped to San Diego for 3 weeks in June to beat the heat just a month after pruning this plant. June of 2017 was the hottest on record here in the Southwest. Lucky for me I as gone but many plants got a bad case of sunburn. Star Jasmine, along with others like photinia, nandina, boxwood, are marginal here in the desert with the intense summer sun & heat. Simply put, my Star Jasmine fried.
I’ve never had anything like this happen to a plant before but I had faith it would come back. I gave it a few deep waterings (it’s on drip but I just wanted to give it a little boost after the frying) over a few week span & applied another couple of inches of compost. Don’t give up on a plant too early just because the foliage is burned or hit by cold. The roots may be just fine which means it’ll eventually recover.
Mine did just that and come mid-fall, was in need of a light pruning. I think of this as a fall trim rather than a full blown spring hair cut. The temperature is cooling a bit to the high-80’s/low 90’s & the intense is sun off this Star Jasmine for most of the day now. Time to spring into action with the Felcos!
