Porana paniculata (commonly called Manimulla, Bridal Creeper, Christmas Jasmine). It’s a fast-growing, perennial climber with of  clusters of white blossoms that look stunning when draped over a trellis or pergola.flowers are fragrant or not-very-strongly fragrant flowers. 

Here’s a full guide on its care and fertilizing:

Care Guide

Sun Light

• Grows best in full sun to partial shade.

• At least 4–6 hrs of direct morning or filtered sunlight ensures profuse flowering.

• Too much shade = fewer blooms.

Soil

• Prefers well-draining, fertile loamy soil.

• Good mix: Garden soil + compost/vermicompost + sand (2:1:1).

• Mulching helps retain moisture & improve soil health.

 Watering

• Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist, especially in hot weather.

• Avoid waterlogging — roots may rot.

• In cooler/rainy months, reduce frequency.

🌡️ Climate

• Thrives in warm, humid, tropical/subtropical climates (like Kerala).

• Frost-sensitive → protect in colder regions.

✂️ Pruning

• Trim after flowering to control size and encourage fresh shoots.

• Pinch tips of young vines to make plant bushier and fuller.

• Provide strong support (trellis, fence, pergola) as it is a vigorous climber.

 Fertilizer

Since it’s a heavy bloomer and fast grower, feeding is essential

• Every 2–3 weeks: Use a balanced liquid fertilizer (NPK 10:10:10 or 19:19:19).

• To boost blooms: Switch to a phosphorus-rich fertilizer (NPK 10:20:10 or 10:30:20).

• Foliar spray of micronutrients (iron, magnesium, zinc) once a month helps maintain lush green leaves.

       Organic Feeding:

• Add vermicompost / cow dung compost every 30–40 days.

• Bone meal or banana peel fertilizer (for phosphorus & potassium) promotes stronger flowering.

 Extra Tips

• Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming.

• Provide strong support structures, since vines can grow aggressively.

• If flowers are few → usually a sign of low sunlight or excess nitrogen (too leafy, fewer blooms).
