Gardenia Aimee #3 Pot

The Gardenia Aimee shrub is a stunning, evergreen plant known for its large, pure white, fragrant flowers that bloom in late spring and early summer. An interesting characteristic of the Aimee variety is its exceptionally large blooms, which can reach up to 5 inches in diameter, making it one of the largest gardenia flowers available.

In southern Louisiana, the Gardenia Aimee grows to a height of 4 to 6 feet with a similar spread, making it ideal for garden beds or as a decorative hedge. It thrives in partial shade to full sun and prefers well-drained, acidic soil. This variety is well-suited for USDA zones 8-11 and can tolerate mild frost, but protection may be needed during colder snaps. Aimee gardenias require regular watering to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during hot, dry periods, but be sure to avoid waterlogging the roots.
