Is there anything more heady than the smell of gardenias? To me it evokes my first special dance when my date gave me a wrist corsage. Seeing these blooms growing outdoors was a real eye-opener when I moved south to Virginia.
Very pretty! My friend Judy has one growing in her home- it's huge! They're worried they won't be able to find a big enough pot for it. It does have a lovely aroma though- and she loves them!
