Gardenia CELESTIAL STAR 'PS 2013 4'
Doubled and perfumed, the elegance of a gardenia in the garden
Gardenia Celestial Star® is a shrub producing elegant white flowers with a remarkable perfume that are doubled and scrolled at the heart. The first flowers emerge at the end of spring - beginning of summer. The display is sustained throughout the summer months with a generous production of flowers once the plant is well settled in. Gardenia Celestial Star® has a beautifully varnished and persistent foliage. Its excellent growth, ready branching, easy cultivation and relative resistance to frost allow its use as a garden Gardenia or as a terrace plant.
