I live in the moderate Haight Ashbry in San Francisco, CA and would like to plant a few Night Jasmine (NOT Star Jasmine)...wondering what month is best.

Not using cuttings....transfering an actual root ball.

Thanks.

The plant you refer to is commonly known as the Night Blooming Jasmine or Night Jessamine. It is not a true jasmine. The correct name to purchase it under is Cestrum nocturnum. Blooming at night, its fragrance is so powerful that people can and have developed allergic reactions. Be wise not to plant too close to open bedroom windows. The scent can very easily and quickly become nauseating! It is potent beyond belief and can be smelled from blocks away! The plant will reach approximately 12 feet at maturity. Easy to grow and tough to kill when established, it's growth can become rangy. When this happens, simply prune and new growth will reappear soon. As you have decided to plant a potted nursery speciman, any time of year is appropriate in San Francisco. You may not see active growth until late spring in your area as the bay keeps the warmer temps of summer at "bay!" Best of Luck!
