Overview

When they appear throughout summer, the creamy coloured flowers of this new, compact gardenia will fill the surrounding air with their deliciously sweet perfume. Therefore, you should try to keep them close to a seating area, pathway, open door or window - and breath deeply each time you pass! Forming a low, bushy mound of lustrous, evergreen foliage, it's said to be hardier than most (it has survived short periods down to -10C), so it's a much better option for the British climate - particularly if you live in a milder region or have a sheltered garden.

Specifications

  • Position: partial shade
  • Soil: prefers moist, well-drained neutral to acidic soil or ericaceous compost if grown in a pot
  • Flowering period: July to September
  • Rate of growth: average
  • Hardiness: frost hardy (may need winter protection)

Care guide

Keep it potted up, so if your garden receives hard frosts, it can easily be moved from a sunny patio in summer to an unheated conservatory or greenhouse in winter. Feed with a balanced liquid feed once a month and water freely with soft water during the growing season. Keep the compost reasonably dry throughout winter. Top-dress or pot on using ericaceous compost and lightly trim over-long shoots immediately after flowering has finished.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Larger pots (2L and above) are wrapped in waxed paper and then attached to a cardboard base so they stay stable in the box. The waxed paper prevents the compost from spilling out and gives the base some added protection from damp compost. For large numbers of plants, pallets may be used for shipping.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
