Trachelospermum Jasminoides
Hi - I just bought myself a gorgeous Jasmine and can't plant it along a fence where I originally planned so instead I figured I might grow it through some very tall shrubs (Griselinia Litoralis). Has anyone any experience of growing this climber through shrubs instead of directly onto a traditional support? I have the right soil all over and enough light for it, I'm just curious about how happy it'll be using shrubs for support. Thanks

Again, not such a good idea. Best support for the T. jasminoides is a good old treillis. Here's a pic of mine, planted against a treillis 7 years ago, and thriving.
How about getting a nice tall Obelisk for it to grow up on?
I wouldn't try and scramble it through another shrub or tree for the reasons given above - competition for nutrients, weight and density.
