I'm growing a variety of Gardenia…six compact, evergreen plants that produce an abundance of beautiful, scented, star-like flowers in the warmer months. I have them placed in beds either side of the front door as a lovely welcome to visitors and for us as we come and go from home.

Foliage is darker in life than seen here, as I over-exposed slightly for artistic effect.

Plants within genus Gardenia are native to the regions of Africa, Asia, Madagascar and here in Australia.

Gardenia grandiflora Star, each bloom around 60 mm.
