{Our Carolina Jasmine}

One of the most beautiful vines is the Carolina Jasmine Gelsemium sempervirens with its fragrant yellow flowers.
This species is by far not as invasive as e.g. wisterias are.
Very lovely sight when blooming like here seen on April 10.
There is a bird house right behind it and often the Caroline Wren lives in it.
What a romantic place for raising their young!
To the right you see our Wood Trail and to the left is our Gazebo...
Do you have a Carolina Jasmine?

  4. No I don't have a Carolyner Jasmine, I try and stay away from yellow flowers in my garden, because my house is a orangy red brick and it is a little too warm a colour for it. So mostly blues and White. Although I do have a very few pale pink roses.

  6. Hello Mariette! No, I havent' seen yellow jasimne here, but we have loads and loads of beautiful flowers which names I unfortuntaley cannot get to know even from local people.
    I am grateful I have blogger friends, and I ask some flowers' names from them from time to time - it helped a lot!
    Lovely gazebo, and I can imagine walking along that wood path...

    this is such an attractive climber - we have it over here, in fact it is climbing over part of our back fence, but didn't know the name!
    It looks wonderful climbing up your tree.
    I hope your Carolina wren lays her eggs in the bird box this Spring!
    Happy week!
    love
    Shane

    Oh, Carolina Jasmine with yellow color♡♡♡ I wish I had bigger garden and I could enjoy the fragrance like Jasmine :-) Yes, wisteria is really invasive; In my neighbor's garden, they are in the overgrown Chinese juniper. Have a LOVELY new week, my friend.

  18. Lieve Mariette,

    Prachtige waterval van gele bloemen in je tuin.
    Snap nooit dat veel mensen de kleur geel vermijden in hun tuin,in mijn optiek trekt het juist een vrolijk en zonnig aandacht punt naar zich toe.

    Denk dat alleen mensen oog hebben voor romantische plekjes....
    vogels stellen alleen eisen aan de plek waar ze hun nest bouwen om hun jongen groot te brengen in de vorm van veiligheid en of er genoeg voedsel in omgeving te vinden is.
    In ons kleine stadstuintje nestelen de mussen,merels gewoon al jaren in de Hedera haag en koolmeesjes nemen genoegen met de vogelhuisjes die her en der hangen.
    Vanmiddag was het een lieve lust om te zien hoe ze hun eerste vliegles kregen.

    Lie groet,
    Ger

  19. Dearest Mariette,
    Your Carolina Jasmine is gorgeous!!!! As I'm telling Dimi, I do have a yellow jasmine (apart from the winter jasmine), but it is not the same as yours. It is the Jasmine humilis, with smaller flowers, yet they are also scented.
    Many hugs!!!!

    1. Dearest Marie-Anne,
      That particular one we too have had in the 90s but we had to remove it as it was growing almost into the garage. Guess all jasmines are scented. The Carolina Jasmine is called: Gelsemium sempervirens
      Hugs to you,
      Mariette

  21. Dear Mariette,
    Oh, I wish I did have one of those beautiful Carolina Jasmine vines! How beautiful it is, and what a lucky little wren to live in such a lovely place. Your gardens are always so enchanting surrounding your sweet gingerbread cottage. (I love your new blog header) Wishing you a lovely week, my Dear.
    Hugs xo

  23. Liebe Mariette,
    ihr wohnt und lebt ja wunderschön. Mit herrlich bunt duftenden Blumen. Brücken mit weissen Geländer und sogar einem weissen Pavillion. Das gefällt mir so super gut.
    Ich stell mir vor... beim Sitzen mit Kaffee und einem interessanten Buch....*träum*.. ;-))

    Wünsche dir einen guten Tag!

    Alle Liebe
    Julia

  24. Dearest Mariette,
    What a pretty color. I grow all jasmines in pots as they would never survive our winters. The yellow is so pretty, just what is needed on a cold, rainy day.
    Enjoy your lovely flowers.....*s*
