A stunning evergreen shrub with glossy, dark green elliptic leaves and highly scented, exquisite rose-like 'waxy' white flowers. Often used in bridal bouquets, the perfume from these beautiful blooms is intoxicating, filling the surrounding air with fragrance. Delivered in bud and flower, this gardenia is a delightful houseplant.

How to care for Gardenia jasminoides:
Gardenias prefer an even temperature, good light and careful watering. Keep the compost moist but not saturated using soft water or room temperature rainwater. Because they like humidity, site on a tray of damp pebbles and mist the leaves except when in flower to extend the blooms.
Feed with a balanced ericaceous liquid feed fortnightly in spring and summer, then in the winter reduce to a monthly feed to maintain colour. Pot up using ericaceous compost to meet the acid (pH) requirements of the plant.
