The invention discloses a method for planting cape jasmine. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps of 1, seedbed selection management, 2, cutting selection pruning, 3, cutting rooting, 4, cuttage, 5, sunshade net arrangement and 6, water and fertilizer management. The method has the advantages that after cutting is treated with a rooting solution prepared from indoleacetic acid, the cutting rooting rate, the average rooting number, the average root length and the survival rate can be remarkably increased, a one-year-old branch is adopted as the cutting, species characteristics can be prevented from degenerating, and the survival rate can be increased; the optimal rooting temperature of the cape jasmine ranges from 20 DEG C to 25 DEG C, the cape jasmine can be prevented from being directly irradiated by sunlight through a sunshade net and the shading coefficient, the temperature is reduced, and the rooting rate and survival rate are increased; by means of leaf fertilizer, cutting rooting can be effectively promoted, and the rooting rate can be increased.
