I bought a star jasmine plant a few weeks ago. I've given it a lovely sunny spot in a container with John Innes no. 3 and watering it regularly when the soil is dry. I fertilised it with miracle gro push and feed pellets.

It's dying. I'm gutted. Its beautiful white flowers are now a rusty brown colour and it has ants all over it. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Please, someone help me. I truly love this plant but I'm not green fingered at all. Treat me like I'm stupid and help me get my beautiful plant back to how it was when I bought it.

They are hardy to -5c. Mine lives out all year.

If it’s cold or windy in winter it might lose its leaves (after turning a beautiful red) but they’ll grow back in spring.
