Both are evergreen in your area, take full sun or full shade, and neither one makes roots from its stems so you don't have to worry about them damaging the stucco. Star/Confederate Jasmine (Trachelospermum jasminoides) is lovely and smells great but I've seen it root into wood and concrete so beware. This is a picture from summer of a Bignonia where I work. Right now the leaves have a neat plum-colored hue. |
