A fragrant everbloomer that’s easy to get along with. Gardenias are known for their temperamental loveliness, but this hard-to -find Gardenia cousin is filled with sweetness. Its enduring nature and adaptability to indoor conditions make it the perfect specimen for houseplant gardeners. The flowers are quite simple, five white petals surround a yellow center. They are always present in dense clusters somewhere on the plant.

GREAT

This is a beautiful plant, excellent packaging from Logee's to Oregon high desert arrived today in perfect condition and still didn't need watering when it arrived. Amazing with the HOT temperatures.

Great fragrant indoors container plant!

I am so impressed with Logees shipping time, careful packing, and quality of plants! I bought this little gardenia friend just a few months back and he shot up and out, once in a new clay pot. I didn't think I would get any blooms until next year, but lo and behold it, has started to bloom! He faces South in a window but I've took him outside on warmer sunny days to bask on the front steps. The flowers are small but very fragrant! And the description and care on Logee's is exact. I have a little leaf crinkling from not enough humidity indoors, and I'll work on that in the Winter months, but for now, the plant is healthy, happy and setting buds.
