Gardenia 'Buttons'

Gardenia ‘Buttons is a small evergreen shrub with glossy, dark green leaves and intensely fragrant flowers.  The elegant white, semi-double flowers sport a golden yellow “button” in the center and bloom from spring through fall.  Growing to about 2-3 feet tall and wide, this low-growing gardenia naturally maintains a rounded, compact shape with minimal pruning.  It is heat tolerant but does best with some afternoon shade in hotter climates.    ‘Buttons’ makes a fantastic accent in the landscape as a low hedge or group planting, and also performs well in containers.  Its blooms and stems of foliage are useful in cut flower arrangements.  Gardenia ‘Buttons’ is grown at Creekside Nursery in 3 gallon containers.
