Fragrance and Attractive Flower of Gardenia

Saturday, June 1, 2019
A Gardenia bud is ready to bloom

We have Gardenia (Gardenia jasminoides) flowers grow so well in our backyard. We love the flowers due to their fragrance and attractive color, bright white.

Flowers are native of tropical regions include Asia, Pacific Islands and Africa. We easily find Gardenia in the countries such as Japan, China, Vietnam, Korea, Taiwan, Bangladesh, Myanmar and India.

Luckily, flowers grow well and blooming in the USA and other Northern hemisphere areas too.

It is said that flowers are blooming from April to probably August each year. Unfortunately, our own Gardenia blooming just in short period, from April to Middle of May.


Flowers start to bloom

There are two types of Gardenia, indoor and outdoor. Indoor type also called as tender Gardenia, while outdoor called as hardly Gardenia.

Based on my readings, Gardenia may bloom in November to December in the areas of Northern America.

However, some people found that their Gardenia doesn’t bloom or buds dropping. It is caused by several factors, some of them are:

- Moisture
- Soil acididity
- Humidity
- Extreme temperature

One big flower

Because of its bright white color and sweet fragrance, Gardenia is a symbol of “purity love and refinement.” Thus, many people in many places use Gardenia for wedding ceremony.

In addition, Gardenia also have some medical benefits:
- Contain substance to manage blood sugar for diabetic patients
- Contain extract to lower cholesterol and blood fat
- Improve liver function
- Prevent microbial (bacteria and virus) infections


Do you have Gardenia? When the flower start to bloom?

  11. I love the smell of gardenies! We had two large bushes but they became diseased so we took them out, but maybe we'll plant more someday. My favorite BATH & BODY WORKS fragrance was GARDENIA LILY...I'm mad as can be that they discontinued it! Thanks for all this great info:)

    Thank you for putting this together and for sharing it. I learned a lot here. Keep up the good work!

    Wishing you all the best!

  20. So pretty! We're in Northern Ontario, Canada and we're still enjoying our tulips, so I'm betting this pretty one wouldn't like our climate :)

  26. My neighbor had gardenias which were lovely, but they took out the bushes because of insects. What a shame. I really loved the smell of gardenias.

  27. Hello, Tanza,

    You so kindly visited my blog and I am delighted to visit and discover the delights of yours. This gardenia is truly beautiful. I don't think I've ever seen on "in person" but I remember my mother saying they were one of the sweetest fragrances she knew.
