While the 'Aimee Yoshiba' variety of gardenia is cultivated and not naturally found, its parent species Gardenia jasminoides, is native to the warm and humid regions of East Asia, particularly China, Taiwan, and Japan. | |
Leaf information: | Dark, glossy green leaves |
Preferred Soil: | Prefers rich, well-drained acidic soils, rich in organic matter |
Renowned for its exceptionally large, creamy white flowers that are intensely fragrant, this variety of Gardenia stands out for its robust growth and larger blossoms compared to other gardenias. The flowers, which appear mainly in late spring to early summer, create a stunning visual and sensory focal point in the garden.
Care Considerations: | Regular watering is crucial, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulching can also help retain soil moisture and keep the roots cool. To encourage blooming and healthy growth, feed with an acidic fertiliser. Pruning after flowering can help maintain shape and promote denser growth. |
