Though it's most commonly used in formal landscaping, Minima jasmine adds a touch of class to a casual landscape and looks very elegant. Tough and great looking when well cared for, this jasmine rarely flowers but forms a blanket of foliage to set off large plants.

These plants do require routine maintenance keeping the planting area edged and snipping off an occasional wayward shoot that tries to climb. Other than that it is an easy-care groundcover and makes an excellent turf grass replacement.
