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.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2. Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.
