Jubilation Gardenia is a compact reblooming evergreen shrub with a rounded habit and full, glossy dark green leaves that keep their color year round. The waxy jasmine-scented white flowers bloom in summer and again in fall. Prefers partial sun and moist, well-drained acidic soils. Jubilation is more cold-hardy than most Gardenia and can be used as a groundcover.

MAINTENANCE NEEDS: High Maintenance. Water regularly, do not let the soil dry out. Fertilize in spring or summer to encourage bloom, but do not fertilize in fall- it will encourage tender growth. Mulch planted area. Prune after flowering. Drip irrigation will help prevent leaf spot. Insects can be a serious problem, as well as powdery mildew, dieback, and sooty mold.
