Hedge Gardenia Grandiflora Star

Gardenia Grandiflora Star is a compact gardenia with pretty white star-shaped flowers that turn cream-coloured as they mature. This bloom is different from most gardenias and is just gorgeous. I am currently 8-10cm tall

It’s low growing but has large white flowers with the traditional gardenia scent.  Grandiflora Star makes a pretty flowering low hedge or divider and looks gorgeous in a pot. The extra benefit of growing gardenias in a pot is that you can move them to your seating area or back door to take advantage of the scent.

This beauty loves sun to filtered sun and slightly acid soils, but if the leaves start to yellow it means the soil is deficient in minerals that gardenias need.

It’s a simple fix of applying Epsom salts or chelated iron onto the roots. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and those deep glossy green tones will soon return.

Quick Facts: 

• What to use me for: I’m a feature plant in the garden and make an attractive flowering hedge. Wildlife adores my nectar and I’m evergreen for winter interest.
• I grow to: I’ll reach 50cms tall and 50cms wide.
• Where to place me:  I like full sun to part shade.
• How far to space me:  If you’re making a hedge I need 30cms otherwise 80cms, please.
• Soil Conditions:  I like moist, but well-drained slightly acidic soil.
