Large gardenias across street Posted by Fred SC on May 31, 2025, 10:35 am They perfume the air! https://i.ibb.co/XxLMkTT7/IMG-6559.jpg https://i.ibb.co/Qg0GJ6t/IMG-6558.jpg

Re: Large gardenias across street Posted by Alvin, z6 on May 31, 2025, 12:14 pm, in reply to "Large gardenias across street" Those are beautiful, Fred. Does the scent travel across the street? I'm sure their yard must smell heavenly. Since I am into more variety, in a small space, I'd bet I could plant, maybe 10 different dwarf, or lower-growing species, in the space occupied, by just ONE of those plants, along with more continuous, different blooms, and scents, as well as food, if their spaces were being used for edibles. I'd try to get the most out of a small space, as I possibly could.

Re: Large gardenias across street Posted by Fred SC on June 1, 2025, 7:44 am, in reply to "Re: Large gardenias across street" Mark, I don’t know. I see a lot of Gardenia here, but newly planted ones tend to be dwarf, you can see why. The older varieties get to be colossal . The one across the street was trimmed about a third onlyabout 3 years ago. The do grow fast!

August Beauty z7 ? must see Kevins Tennessee Gardenia Posted by Rob on June 1, 2025, 5:34 pm, in reply to "Large gardenias across street" Fred they almost look like August Beauty. They can get that big and Gardenias aren't all that hardy but today you can fine new creations that can take z6b/z7a. Those sure are beautiful. Kevin posted some on his youtube channel recently.
