Hello Everyone,
Sorry for my poor English.
I'm looking for good jasmines or jasmine looking vines that are easy to grow, and that have a sweet scent.
I live in a place where freeze is not uncommon, but temperatures seldom drop below -5°C (which is something like 22°F, I think).
Do you have some suggestions?
I already know Jasminum polyanthum and Jasminum sambac. I'd like other scented vines.
Thank you, Daniele.

Hello Dan,
Welcome.

Possible suggestions : Jasminum stephanense and Trachelospermum jasminoides (a.k.a. confederate jasmine)

Regards
Kacey

Hi,

I'll second Trachelospermum jasminoides, and also Trachelospermum asiaticum.
These vines look and smell like jasmine, and have a very good frost hardiness.

Hello,

I think that if your minimum temperatures are -5°C, then you are lucky and can grow most true jasmines, like Jasminum stephanense, Jasminum sambac and sambac 'Grand Duc of Tuscany', jasminum officinale, jasminum polyanthum and many others.
All these vines are really worth growing. You seem to enjoy mild winters, don't hesitate to try them :-)
Regards
Etto

Hi, Daniele. Do you have to restrict yourself to Jasmine? If not,there are many Honeysuckle vines about,[Lonicera,] With a variety of colours and leaf shapes, many of which are evergreen and scented. I hope this helps. R.E. Nij. :-)
