    Beautiful gardenia...

    Posted by Diane White on Oct 02, 2022

    I wish you hadn’t waited so long to let me know the watering schedule since I didn’t water like you recommended and I’ve been gone 4 days with no water. I pray it still looks beautiful. Instructions should come with the plant Otherwise it is a very healthy plant. The best I have ever received in the mail from any plant company. Thanks

    August Beauty Gardenia was a delightful surprise. First time I had ordered from you, and was astounded when my plant arrived heavily laden with buds. Some have already bloomed. Will check out your site again in the fall. Also appreciated the instructions on caring for my plant.

    Not happy that this wasn't blooming when it arrived. But it seems like the plant is at least healthy. I hope it blooms soon, because I have guests arriving and want my garden to look nice!
