Gardenia jasminoides ‘Grif’s Select’
Gardenia J. ‘Grif’s Select’ is a compact, evergreen shrub grown for its glossy dark green foliage and masses of beautifully fragrant, creamy white flowers. Flowering from late spring through summer, it fills the garden with the unmistakable perfume that makes gardenias such a favourite. Its naturally dense growth habit makes it perfect for garden borders, low hedges, feature planting, or growing in pots close to outdoor living areas where the scent can be fully appreciated.
