Gardenia jasminoides 'Veitchii' is a beautiful gardenia valued for its profusion of “everblooming” fragrant white double flowers. Veitchii is a compact evergreen shrub with glossy green dense foliage on upright branches. Grow these plants in full sun or part shade in warmer inland areas. Trim lightly after bloom to maintain a tidy appearance. Excellent in borders, hedges, as an accent plant, or in containers where the fragrance can be enjoyed.
How large does it grow and what is its growth habit?
It typically grows to around 3-6 ft tall and about 3-4 ft wide (up to about 6 ft wide), with a mounding, compact habit.
What light conditions does it prefer?
It does best in full sun to partial shade, in warmer climates some afternoon shade helps prevent leaf scorch.
What soil, watering and planting conditions does it require?
It prefers well-draining, acidic soil (pH ~5.0-6.5) and needs consistent moisture (soil evenly moist but not waterlogged). Amend heavy soil with organic matter for best results.
What are the common problems or things to watch out for?
Bud drop (buds falling off unopened) can happen if humidity is low, soil becomes dry or the plant is stressed by heat. Be careful of root-rot and poor drainage as well.
