Oh JB & Cinta, You guys are at least right about one thing: I am confused. Let me clarify the followings: I bought an 1-gal pot of Jasmine Confederate; I re-potted it and placed in patio in front of a sliding door/window; I moved it inside behind the same sliding door/window when 1st autumn rain came; and then I moved it to a spot (inside) for receiving max sunlight possible. I don't see the situation can/will make any significant difference from Cinta's scenario (quote): "..So it came inside and was put in a cool room 50-60. It lost most of the leaves and I gave it enough water so the soil was not bone dry. Which was usually every 4-6 weeks... " Maybe it's not winter yet, but due to the recent cooling down (and insufficient sunlight?) some of the new shoots have stopped growing and some leaves fell. How is this not "pre-dormancy"? My area is not tropical, but desert-like (it can go under 40F in winter outside). I wonder how do JB's indoor jasmines not go dormant (sleep) in winter in NJ? Do they keep growing in winter and not shed leaves? What indoor conditions you provide: temp, light, water, food? Thanks
