The Daisy Gardenia, Gardenia jasminoides 'radicans', grows to a height of 1 to 2 feet. Daisy gardenias are creeping in nature, and reach a spread of 3 to 4 feet. Like the rest of the plant, the white waxy flowers of the daisy gardenia are small, measuring about 1 inch across. Daisy gardenias grow best in full sun to partial shade and prefer rich, well drained soil of an acidic nature. Water thoroughly and allow the soil to dry to moistness between waterings. Daisy gardenias are ideal for gardeners who want gardenias without the upright, tall growth of most cultivars. They adapt well to growing in containers. Enjoy! |
