On Your Site, It Is Stated Crepe Jasmine

Question

Thrives outdoors in direct sunlight in zones 9-11. I live in Tucson, AZ. I put my Crepe Jasmin outside. In one day, the leaves were burnt and wilted. Are you certain your information is correct?

Answer 1

Anytime you move a plant from indoors to outside, it must be acclimated to the brighter light. You can start with the plant under a tree, then move it each day to a location with more and more sun. Do this for 7 to 10 days. The Florida article says it grows in full sun to shade. In your location, you may want to give it some shade, especially in the afternoon.
