From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

+

Gardeniaflowerssummergardenia + is a genus of about 250 species of flowering + plants in the coffee family, Rubiaceae, native to the + tropical + and subtropical regions of Africa, southern Asia, Australasia and Oceania. Several + species occur on Hawaii, where gardenias are known as na'u or nanu.

+

+

The genus was named by Carl Linnaeus after Dr. Alexander Garden (1730-1791), a + Scottish-born American naturalist.

+

They are evergreen shrubs and small trees growing to 1–15 metres (3.3–49 ft) tall. The + leaves are opposite or in whorls of three or four, 5–50 centimetres (2.0–20 in) long and + 3–25 centimetres (1.2–9.8 in) broad, dark green and glossy with a leathery texture. The + flowers are solitary or in small clusters, white, or pale yellow, with a tubular-based + corolla with 5-12 lobes (petals) from 5–12 centimetres (2.0–4.7 in) diameter. Flowering + is from about mid-spring to mid-summer and many species are strongly scented.

+

Gardenia plants are prized for the strong sweet scent of their flowers, which can + be very large in some species.

+

Gardenias have a reputation for being difficult to grow. Because they originated + in warm humid tropical areas, they demand high humidity to thrive. They flourish in + acidic soils with good drainage and thrive on [68-74 F temperatures (20-23 C)] during + the day and 60 F (15-16 C) in the evening. Potting soils developed especially for + gardenias are available.

+

In Japan and China, Gardenia jasminoides is called Kuchinashi (Japanese) + and Zhi zi (Chinese); the bloom is used as a yellow dye, which is used for + clothes and food (including the Korean mung bean jelly called hwangpomuk).
