Kleim's 2-inch, single blossoms appear in late spring/early summer, a 6-petaled delicacy of waxy, white blooms with yellow centers. Each flower emits a divine, heavenly fragrance that is so intense it will announce itself long before your approach.
Your Kleim's Hardy Gardenia also features dark green, glossy foliage that will fill out your shrub nicely even when not in bloom. Making them fantastic year-round landscaping ornamentals that shrug off high heat, full sun, and southern humidity!
Your Kleim's Hardy Gardenia is a dwarf variety, so you can easily manage one even if you're short on space. Kleim's Gardenia has a mounded habit, is evergreen, and is very hardy.

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Loving the full sun, and a touch of part shade, Gardenia do best where they are protected from the cold, drying winter winds. Preferring good air circulation and the morning sun and a touch of shade in the hottest southern sun, Gardenias shrugs off the high humidity of the south with ease! Water well while they're establishing, and plant in organically rich, well-draining soils.
Mulch the base of your plant to keep the roots stress-free and keep the foliage cleaner and problem-free. Prune after the flowers fade in the summer to tidy up their appearance.
- Full Sun
- Moist Enriched Well-Drained Soil
- Prune After Flowering
- Shrugs Off Heat & High Humidity
- Deer Resistant, Low-Maintenance & Easy Care
Kleim's Hardy Gardenia will not only squeeze in just about anywhere, but its cold hardy nature and tenacious spirit are sure to make having one of these remarkable plants a reality for you this year. Order one for your garden today!
