(Gardenia Jasminoides, Ellis) in Various Substrates Amended with Sulphur
36 Global Journal of Plant Ecophysiology, 3(2): 36-43, 2013 ISSN 2074-0891 This is a refereed journal and all articles are professionally screened and reviewed ORIGINAL ARTICLES Plant Growth And Flowering Of Cape Jasmine (Gardenia Jasminoides, Ellis) In Various Substrates Amended With Sulphur 1,2,4Tarek M.A. Soliman, 1Naiem E.

Agricultural Research Center. Giza. Egyptticulture Research Institute. Agricultural Research Center. Giza. Egypt ABSTRACT Growth and flower production of gardenia plant (Gardenia jasminoides, Ellis.) were studied to find out the appropriate growing media amended with sulphur. Rice straw, sawdust and clay used as growing substrates, were amended with four (0, 1/2, 1 and 2% w/w) levels of sulphur. The experiment was laid out in split-plot design using substrates as main plot and sulphur amendment in sub-plot with 4 replications. The experiment was carried out in successive two growing season in 2004/2005 and 2005/2006. The findings revealed that both growing media and sulphur amendment alone and in combination significantly affected vegetative and reproductive growth of gardenia plant. Rice straw was the best media followed clay and sawdust. Out of four 1 doses of sulphur amendment, /2% S application showed best result which was identically followed by 1% sulphur in most of the cases. However, considering the interaction effect, rice straw amended with 1% sulphur proved to be the best combination in producing tallest plant(34.69 cm), maximum number of leaves(70), widest stem (4.4 mm), maximum fresh shoot-root weight (37.46 g) and maximum dry shoot-root weight (12.83 g).

GARDENIA for Me, Nothing Evokes Summer More Than the Fragrance of a Gardenia
Nancy Merwin January 30, 2020 GARDENIA For me, nothing evokes summer more than the fragrance of a gardenia. My love affair with this beautiful, fragrant, classic flower began sixty years ago in my Mother’s well-tended Bay Area garden. She grew several varieties and placed bowls of floating gardenias throughout the house in summer. My favorite variety was ‘Mystery’ as it is the largest, most fragrant gardenia. As I grew older, trips to San Francisco’s Union Square often included a stop at the corner florist stand where a gardenia corsage was purchased and proudly worn. For my birthday my Father always gave me one gardenia for each year, on my 30th birthday he gave me a gardenia plant having decided it was time for me to learn to grow my own. Thus began my endeavor to grow the gardenia. History G. Jasminoides, commonly known as Gardenia is part of the Rubiaceae Family. An evergreen flowering plant known for its shiny dark green leaves, displaying white or yellowish, single or double flower with a strong fragrance. It is most commonly found in tropical and subtropical areas such as the Pacific Islands, Southern China, and Japan. In the US it grows outdoors in Zones 7-9, 12- 16 and 18-23. In other zones, it can successfully be grown in containers or a greenhouse (H1, H2). The gardenia is native of China, (where it was thought to have been around for a thousand years), Taiwan and Japan. One theory is that it was brought to England in the 1750s and may have been named after jasmine due to its fragrance.

Gardenia 'Frostproof'
Gardenia ‘Frostproof’ Gardenia jasminoides Gardenia jasminoides ‘Frostproof’, also known as Cape Jasmine, is a medium-sized evergreen shrub with thick, dense, dark green leaves and fragrant, pure white double flowers that bloom in late spring and early summer. As the name implies, it is more frost-hardy than other cultivars, which means it usually won’t suffer damage to its blooms from late-spring frosts. It grows best in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 7 to 11. Gardenias have shallow roots that do not do well with obstruction, so it is best to plant within landscapes that will not promote root disturbance. Gardenia ‘Frostproof’ should be pruned back in the dormancy period to promote branching and compact growth. Gardenias prefer to live in acidic, well-draining soil, and thrive on bright sunlight, either direct or indirect depending on heat. In especially hot climates, their leaves may scorch and their flower buds may fall off, so planting with access to morning sun and afternoon shade is best. Gardenias make great containerized plants, but are ideally planted near decks, walkways, patios, and gardens so that their sweet fragrance can be enjoyed. They can be planted on their own as small shrubs, or planted in clusters or hedges. They are deer resistant, attract pollinators, and make great cut flowers. Container grown Gardenia ‘Frostproof’ Gardenia ‘Frostproof’ flowers Gardenia ‘Frostproof’ leaves (352) 429 - 2171 / 7836 Cherry Lake Road, Groveland FL, 34736 / cherrylake.com Gardenia ‘Frostproof’ Gardenia jasminoides Common Names: Native Origin: China Cape Jasmine, Common Gardenia, Gardenia Augusta, Gardenia Florida, Gardenia Grandiflora Environment: Description: Soil: well-draining Hardy Range: 7 - 11 Exposure: full/partial Mature Height: 5 - 5.5’ sun Mature Spread: 3 - 4’ Growth Rate: slow/ moderate Ornamental Characteristics: Gardenia ‘Frostproof’ can be identified by its pinwheel or spiral-looking flower buds, and its white, fragrant double flowers, which are about 2 to 3 inches each.
