Thank you for discussing the need for part shade. I never knew that until I just watched another guy in India talk about how gardenias will not thrive in full sun! So I am going to transplant mine from 10 hrs of sun to a dappled shade area.
Thank you so much for this informative video! I water logged my first gardenia last year ( in a pot) and just got a new one so don’t want to mess this one up!! I’m putting this one in the ground..
Hi Dee I bought jasmine Gardenia seeds from a online store. The seeds are a reddish-orange like color and they are kinds flat or shape like a pepper or tomato seeds. I was hoping you could tl me if I have Gardenia seeds or what.. thank you so much for all your help. Dg
Its gorgeous and wish I could plant it in my zone. Can wait to see how they do. Also, any update on the little boxwoods you propagated? Can't wait to see them:)
The little boxwood are doing great!! Some are putting on more growth than others, I'm thinking about planting them this fall. I'll definitely have a video on it 😁
At this point, I personally would keep it in it's container and keep it outside and then bring it into a garage type setting if any temperatures are below 29 degrees, and then put it back out when it warms up. Then I would plant it in the Spring. Gardenia's are marginally hardy in zone 7 and it's best to get a full growing season in the ground prior to it's first winter.
I just recently discovered these and really want to get a couple. I want to plant them as foundation plants on the front side of my house, which faces west. I'm in NC in zone 7B. Right now, I will have some radiance abelia in front of them. I have a Frost Proof Gardenia as a specimen plant in a different section of the front yard (opposite side of the front yard / different bed). In your opinion would the diamond spire and the abelia be a good combination? I also have a forsythia in the bed where I would like to put the diamond spire gardenia. Thank you for your input.
Hi Mavis, I think that would look so beautiful. I have radiance Abelia also and both plants would look great especially because they will both be evergreen for you. I say go for it 😁
thank you for this video. Im in zone 7a as well in Washington. I’m curious how does your gardenias planted int he ground outdoors do in the winter. I always here to put gardenias outside when its warm/hot but have to put it inside when it gets cold. Can you shed some light on that please?
I leave all of my Gardenias outdoors, in the ground during the winter. As long as the Gardenia you have is cold hardy to your zone 7, they are good to go to leave outdoors. 😊
I planted mine in the ground in April of this year and it flowered once in May and stopped. About a month ago it started getting yellow leaves at the bottom and now the yellowing leaves has started to creep up to the top level. It gets sun from 10-4pm (East west facing house) and during summer I water it every morning. Now I am getting worried whether it is due to overwatering or underwatering? Help! Also how do you propogate this new diamond spire gardenia? Its leave structure is so clumped together that it is impossible to trim down to only a few. I have tried the soil method only to have the entire cutting turn brown. Is water propopagating better? If the cutting takes off by October, should I over winter it indoors? I live in zone 8A.

Thank you 😊
I just ordered a Golden Magic Gardenia shrub and I am so excited to plant it in my garden! Thanks Dee!
That's so exciting!!! Thank you for watching 😊
Great variety. The shape lends itself to many locations near the house.
Another great tutorial! Too much to learn 🌼, have great rest of the week friend.🌺
Thank you as always friend! Have a great week 😊
Hi Dee, love your channel! Try de-leafing the damaged leaves (only) on your Japanese maple. It forces the tree to come up with fresh new leaves.
Hi Kate 👋 thank you kindly!!! Awesome advice, I'll go do that now 😊
Which one is the best fragrance, Gardenias or Jasmine Grand duke of Tuscany? Which one you prefer and best fragrance?
Thank you! What is the tree in the corner behind you in the video? It's perfect for that space by my deck in the yard.
Red Dragon Japanese Maple. We had a late frost that crisped up the edges that year, but usually, it's a beautiful red/purple color.

Absolutely!! Thank you for asking! 😊
Hi Dee! followed your page after you were featured on Garden Answer. Love your garden. Beautiful plants!
Yay!! Thank you so much!!
Do I have to wait til spring to plant in Zone 7 for frost free gardenia or do I have to keep it inside for this winter ?

Sounds like over-watering
What should I do the floors after they open they change the color like brown?
You can either pull them off or just leave them.. they will eventually fall off themselves.
