| Gardenia jasminoides, commonly known as the cape jasmine, is a highly fragrant evergreen shrub native to tropical and subtropical regions of Asia. Renowned for its glossy dark green leaves and large, creamy white flowers, Gardenia jasminoides is often grown for its ornamental value and intoxicating scent. It thrives in well-drained, acidic soil and requires moderate watering, with a preference for bright, indirect sunlight. Gardenias are ideal for gardens, patios, and even indoor spaces, though they need consistent humidity and protection from frost. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages more abundant blooms.
