Where do get Jasmine?

Do you want it for your bouquet? Most florists are reluctant to order it in as flowers as they are very delicate and discolour quickly. We used to suggest that the bride buy a jasmine plant and give it to the florist. Then they can take off the blooms as close to the wedding as possible and wire them up for the bouquets and buttonholes.

Most garden centres have Jasmine plants as well as places like Tesco. Not sure where you are based but the likes of Newlands in Clondalkin nearly always have them. Look for Jasmine or Stephanotis which is almost identical and has a beautiful perfume too.
