Gardenia jasminoides (9cm)

The Gardenia Jasminoides shrub has lustrous dark green leaves that flourish all year round. It blooms stunning star-shaped, single white flowers with various elegant petals, carrying an exquisite fragrance from late spring to mid-summer.

Glossy evergreen foliage provides the perfect backdrop for the exquisite blooms in summer. A beautiful, compact shrub for sheltered borders and containers.

These beautiful shrubs thrive in dappled shade or semi-shade, planted in a rich fertile and neutral to acid soil, that is well-drained. Add a feed with balanced liquid fertilizer in March and later in June. Gardenia plants need regular watering if they are grown outdoors. Prune them slightly to maintain their neat shape and faded flowers in spring.

Plant your Cape Jasmine plant near a garden entrance or patio where it can boast its showy flowers and sweet scent.
