Known as the Grace of the South, the Frostproof Gardenia is a timeless evergreen shrub that brings beauty, elegance, and irresistible fragrance to your landscape.
Its pure white, double blooms stand out against glossy dark green foliage, creating a striking contrast that’s as graceful as it is eye-catching. This gardenia thrives in the heat and offers a rich, sweet scent that lingers in the air during its blooming season - perfect for planting near porches, windows, or patios.
Unlike older varieties, the Frostproof Gardenia lives up to its name by holding onto its buds and blooms even after a light frost. It's also more resistant to pests and diseases, making it a reliable, low-maintenance choice for Southern gardens.
Whether you’re lining a walkway, adding charm to foundation plantings, or creating a serene space to enjoy its fragrance, the Frostproof Gardenia is a must-have. It’s the very definition of Southern grace - classic, refined, and always in bloom!
