Snow-mageddon of 2021 and the following year's ice storm knocked Primrose Jasmines back so hard they almost died and did not flower in the springs that followed each event. 

There's another variety of Jasmine that is similar to Primrose Jasmine but is more compact and flowers later. I'm trying to find more information on it and will update this when I have it.
