Gardenia

Gardeners in zones 3-8 will love adding this beautiful Peony to their collection. Gardenia is a large 6” blush white Peony with a mild fragrance. Her strong stems push out tons of buds, leaving a plant absolutely covered in blooms. Gardenia will bloom mid-spring and does best in full sun but can handle some partial shade. She is a perfect choice for large pots or beds, as she reaches 2-3’ wide. Enjoy gorgeous spring blooms for arrangements with double, blush-white beauty.

Gardenia is sold as one root with 3-5 eyes.

Fall Planting Instructions:

1. Choose an area with at least 6 hours of sunlight with soil that has good drainage.

3. Place Peony roots 2-3” under the soil line with eyes facing upward, and then gently pack the soil over the roots.
