The “more” gardenia -- more tough, more cold tolerant and sun tolerant, more adaptable, and said to be more deer resistant -- not to mention beautiful! Double white flowers are extremely fragrant and profuse, continuing over a long season beginning in spring. They can even take a bit of spring frost without dropping. Evergreen, to 2-3' tall and a bit wider, and happy in full sun to part sun with summer water where dry. Definitely frost hardy in USDA zone 8 and expected well into the upper reaches of zone 7.

The best gardenia for outdoors in Northwest gardens with buds surviving Arctic blasts! Very fragrant single flowers and shiny green leaves on shrubs 3-4' tall and wide.
