A true gem for any garden, Chrysojasminum parkeri is the smallest variety of jasmine, rarely exceeding 30 cm in height. This slow-growing dwarf shrub was first discovered by R. N. Parker in Northern India. Despite its diminutive size, it is remarkably cold-hardy, withstanding temperatures as low as -20 °C. During the summer, it is covered in small, fragrant yellow flowers that contrast beautifully with its tiny foliage. Due to its compact, mounded habit, it is an ideal choice for rock gardens, troughs, or the edge of a sunny border.
