Q.how and when is the best time to transplant my stephan jasmine?

My jasmine is 6 years old and I need to move it to the other side of the garden. I tried last year with another one I had and it died. As my late father bought them for me, I don’t want to lose another one.

The older a plant is, the more likely it is to go into transplant shock when moved. This article will help you try to prevent it and will explain how to treat it if it happens after it has been moved:

Fall is a good time as is spring for transplanting. You are looking for relative cool but not cold temperatures with plenty of water (from rainfall or from manual watering).
