Frostproof gardenia is a great plant for home gardeners to enjoy. It is a Louisiana Super Plant selection.

Frostproof is widely used by landscape professionals. It’s an improvement over older gardenia varieties.

Frostproof has fast growth, site adaptability and suitability to poorer growing conditions, making it more desirable than August Beauty, Mystery and dwarf varieties. It reaches a mature height of 5 feet with a spread of 4-5 feet.

Try it soon for a low-maintenance, good-performing gardenia – which has not been common in the last few years.

Frostproof has the fragrance of other gardenias and blooms early to mid-May through early summer.
