Introducing the Madagascar Jasmine, known as Stephanotis floribundam, which is a beautiful and fragrant flowering vine that belongs to the Apocynaceae family. It is also known as Stephanotis Jasminoides or Marsdenia floribunda.

Native to the island of Madagascar, which is located off the southeastern coast of Africa, it is known by various names, including "Pikafu" and "Bridal flower," reflecting its popularity in wedding bouquets and its delicate, cascading flowers.  


The Stephanotis floribunda is a woody vine that can climb or trail, depending on its support.

It features glossy, dark oval green leaves that are opposite in arrangement and have a leathery texture.

As it matures, the plant can grow up to 20 feet long. This makes it a great choice for trellises, arbors, or containers where it can be trained to climb or cascade.

The Stephanotis flowers are tubular in shape, with waxy pure white petals that are fused together, forming a star-like shape. They have a sweet and intoxicating fragrance that fills the air, making them a popular choice for bridal Stephanotis bouquets and floral arrangements. These intensely fragrant tubular flowers typically bloom during the spring and summer, in clusters and can last for several weeks, adding a touch of elegance to any setting. 

Propagation of the Madagascar Jasmine can be done through stem cuttings. Take a 4 to 6-inch cutting from a healthy stem, remove the lower leaves, and place it in a well-draining potting mix. Keep the soil consistently moist and provide bright, indirect light. With proper care, the cutting will develop roots and grow into a new Stephanotis plant. 

Watering Needs 

The beautiful Madagascar jasmine vine prefers thorough watering but allows the soil to slightly dry out between waterings. When you do water them, the most important thing is to take care not to overwater them as this can lead to root rot and fungal infections. 

In the spring and summer growth season, your Madagascar Jasmine enjoys regular watering. Water the plant once or twice a week, depending on weather and soil moisture levels, deeply at the base to ensure it reaches the roots. 

In winter, when the plant is in its dormant phase, you'll want to reduce the frequency of watering. Allow the top inch or so of soil to dry out before watering again. Be mindful not to let the plant sit in standing water, as it can be detrimental to its growth rate. 

Remember, it's always a good idea to monitor the moisture levels by checking the soil with your finger. If it feels dry, it's time to water, but if it still feels slightly moist, hold off for a bit. By providing the Madagascar Jasmine with the right amount of water, you'll help it thrive and showcase its lovely blooms.  

Light Requirements 

When growing Stephanotis floribunda indoors, it thrives in bright, indirect light. Place it near a window that receives bright, filtered sunlight for several hours a day. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. 

When grown outdoors, it prefers full sun to partial shade for at least 4-6 hours daily. A location that receives morning full sun exposure and afternoon partly sunny exposure is ideal. This will protect the plant from intense sunlight and prevent leaf burn. 

Pro Tip

It's important to note that the Madagascar Jasmine is sensitive to sudden changes in light conditions. If you're transitioning it from indoors to outdoors or vice versa, acclimate it gradually over a period of a few weeks to prevent shock and leaf drop.

Remember, finding the right balance of light is crucial for your plant's overall health and blooming potential. Providing it with the appropriate light conditions, whether indoors or outdoors, will help it thrive and showcase its beautiful fragrant Stephanotis flowers.  

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Requirements 

The Madagascar Jasmine likes very airy, porous, nutrient-rich soil with a pH of 5.5-6.5. Cacti require fast-draining soil that dries completely between waterings. Your soil mixture must have a sandy texture and a low water-holding capacity, just like desert soil.

As an alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil. Ideally, you want to use our specialized potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your vine plant to thrive. 

As for fertilizing, the Madagascar Jasmine benefits from regular feeding during the growing season. You can use a well-balanced (5-10-5), water-soluble NPK fertilizer specifically formulated for flowering plants to encourage prolific bloom. Follow the instructions for the correct dilution and frequency of application. Generally, fertilize once a year in the spring, and reduce or stop fertilizing during the winter months when the Madagascar jasmine plant is in its dormant phase. 

It's important to avoid over-fertilizing the Stephanotis floribunda, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of blooms. Always err on the side of caution and follow the recommended dosage. Additionally, make sure to water the plant thoroughly before applying fertilizer to prevent root burning. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

When growing indoors, this Madagascar jasmine prefers a warm environment ideally between 65°F and 75°F. It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures but avoid exposing it to temperatures below 55°F as it may cause damage to the plant.

The Stephanotis vines plant appreciates moderate to high humidity levels. You can increase humidity around the plant by misting its leaves with water regularly or placing a tray filled with water and pebbles beneath the pot. This will create a humid microclimate around the plant, mimicking its natural habitat. 

For outdoor cultivation, this Stephanotis floribunda is typically suitable for USDA zones 10-12. It thrives in warm tropical regions where temperatures rarely drop below 30°F. If you live in a colder region, you can still grow it outdoors during the warmer months and bring it indoors or provide protection during winter.  

Final Thoughts 

Overall, the Madagascar Jasmine (Stephanotis floribunda) is a captivating flowering vine native to Madagascar. With its glossy dark green leaves, fragrant star-shaped fragrant flowers, and the ability to climb or trail, it adds a touch of elegance to any garden or floral arrangement. It is commonly used in bridal wreaths due to its beauty and sweet fragrance. When it comes to care, it thrives in bright, indirect light and requires consistently moist, well-draining soil. To grow stephanotis, provide a suitable trellis, wire round, or fencing to support the twining stems or vine's tendrils and prevent tangles. Whether used as a striking ornamental vine, a fragrant addition to floral arrangements, or a symbol of love in bridal bouquets, it is a stunning plant that brings beauty and elegance to any space. Its delicate tubular flowers contrast nicely and make it a Favorite among gardeners and flower enthusiasts alike.

budget friendly for dogs who lose balls in the creek
Color: Multi Squeaker Balls, Size: Medium, Style: 4-Pack
Not great quality, but works for our needs. I have a ball crazy lab. She loves for me to throw a ball using the Chuck-it Ball Launcher. We do this in our wide back yard that butts up to a creek. At some point during her run and fetch, she will take a quick detour right into the creek. She nearly always still has the ball, but once in awhile it is lost. Not wanting to chance it on more pricy (and more durable) balls, I get these or something like these. They dont cost much, yet they do the job. I' not upset if one gets sacrificed to the creek waters and mud. Since the balls end up getting wet often, they will kinda fall apart over time (chasing, kicking, throwing, retrieving, dog saliva etc). But she doesn't chew on them. Glad she doesnt as tennis balls arent good on teeth, but even if it was ok, the balls probably would be breached easily. SO get these if you are like me and want a ball that does the job but arent a total financial loss if get lost or destroyed. For indoor play we and by we I mean our 3 dogs demand that we use the rubbery max glow chuck-it ball. And will ignore this style ball. Yes, I am well trained. lol

These balls SUCK! External squeakers, minimal bounce and blue that is too dark.
Color: Multi Squeaker Balls, Size: X-Small, Style: 8-Pack
We have 2 little dogs in our home - a 1.5 year old Pomsky, and a 9 year old Pekingese. My Peke has shown no interest in tennis balls for years, until today! Imagine my excitement! Until she promptly destroyed the first squeaker on one of the blue balls. When I removed it, she began peeling the logos off the ball, and then started tearing the fuzz off! My dog has never destroyed any toy in her life, so this was shocking! Then the Pomsky decided that she wanted to play fetch with the new balls - she has Golden Retriever energy - and decided to destroy a squeaker in the midst of playing! She also wasn't nearly as interested in these tennis balls as her other tennis balls that she inherited from my Peke. 1. STUPID design, with the squeakers sticking out of the balls (the don't sit flush), so they are asking to get chewed or pulled out by any dog, even elderly 10 lb dogs! And a 9 lb young adult. 2. They are difficult to squeak compared to their Kong tennis balls, hence why the Pomsky wasn't interested for long. 3. They don't bounce as much as the Kong tennis balls, either, which made them less than exciting for the athletic and agile Pomsky. Meh. We wanted to get the smallest tennis balls we could get (1.5 inch) because neither dog will play with the 2 inch or bigger ones, but we also wanted to get colors they could easily see! The Pomsky clearly prefers the yellow balls to any other color (red, orange, green, darker blue, watermelon design), so we wanted to get like a bright blue or turquoise couple of balls to appeal to them! Well, my senior Peke liked the blue ones the most, but also liked the red and orange. Pomsky didn't like the blue ones. I think they're too dark of a blue to be easily seen in our home afternoons and evenings in the winter. We love Outward Hound toys in our house, but these were an expensive FLOP. They are the right size, but WHY did they put the squeakers so visible and appealing to dogs? I've never seen the squeaker in the Kong tennis balls. My advice is that Kong seems to make the best tennis balls for toy breeds, in the 1.5" size. Outward Hound dropped the ball here... no pun intended. The blue is darker than the photos depict (may be better in natural sunlight outdoors), the squeakers are external, and they barely bounce at all. Our next step will be to get the pressurized bright blue tennis balls from another brand, in hopes that the bounce and visibility will outweigh the lack of squeakiness. If those don't work, I guess we'll stick to the classic neon yellow Kong tennis balls! At my local Target, they only have multicolor packs of them, and the dark blue, red and green get completely ignored. *Dogs can only see shades of blues, yellows and black, grey and white. While some dogs may not seem to care about color, our Pomsky clearly does. :(

These cute little squeaky balls are the perfect size for my Shih Tzu. She loves to chew on them and make them squeak all the time, so they are durable. I would purchase them again.

Not super durable but good squeak while they work
Color: Multi Squeaker Balls, Size: Large, Style: 4-Pack
My dog loves these but they break very quickly. I've got an older set that was incredibly durable, but these all stopped squeaking/got holes after the first or second play session
