DESCRIPTION AND ETHNOBOTANY
| Growth Form | Large, woody evergreen shrub with a dense, rounded crown, able to grow up to 2.5 m tall. |
|---|---|
| Foliage | Glossy, deeply veined leaves are elliptic with entire leaf margin. Variegated leaves are dark green along the midrib with an irregular cream to white border along the leaf margin. |
| Flowers | Fragrant, double flowers are white to creamy white, about 7 cm wide. |
| Cultivation | This species has a slow growth rate. It blooms best in full sun, but also tolerates partial shade. It grows best in well-draining soils that are acidic (pH 5.5 – 6) and rich in compost. Mulch the plants with compost to prevent the soil from drying out or the roots from overheating. Feed plants with a palm fertilizer 3 times a year and prune after flowering. |
| Etymology | Genus “Gardenia” is named after Dr. Alexander Garden, an American doctor who also studied plants and animals (1730 – 1791). The species epithet “jasminoides” means similar to Jasmine, referring to the species’s Jasmine-like fragrance. |
LANDSCAPING FEATURES
| Landscaping | This free-flowering species is grown for its large, fragrant flowers and variegated leaves. The variegated leaves provide a contrast in colour next to green foliage plants and help to brighten partly shady areas. It is suitable for container plantings and makes an attractive specimen plant. Avoid planting several types of fragrant flowering shrubs together or too many of them together as the aromas could clash or become too strong. |
