Gardenia jasminoides 'Shooting Star'

Shooting Star Single Gardenia

Tropical shrubs with dark green shiny foliage and large fragrant single white flowers. Loves heat, best in rich well drained acidic soil. In the south and west where many of the soils are typically alkaline, the addition of copious amounts of peat moss, compost and soil sulfur can be added to the soil to lower the pH. Likes full sun, regular feeding, with lots of humidity. Not 100% sure on the cultivar name, but the description matches the plant well. Great as a container plant, keep well fed for a healthy blooming plant.
