How to Water Orange Jasmine?

Originating from the tropical regions, orange jasmine thrives in environments with high humidity and consistent moisture. This species is drought-tolerant to an extent but flourishes when its soil mimics the moist, well-drained conditions of its native habitat. Watering should be moderate, aligning with a schedule of once every two weeks. Typically grown outdoors due to its preference for warm climates, orange jasmine often experiences a boost in growth during rainy seasons, which naturally supplements its watering needs.
