Gold Doubloon Gardenia – 6 Pack Of 1 Gallon Pots

Gold Doubloon is an absolutely incredible variegated Gardenia showing off both stunning foliage and the largest flowers of any of the many varieties in our gardens. In spring new leaves emerge a bright chartreuse that turns to shades of brilliant golden yellow with small patches of deep green at the center. In late spring to early summer extremely large 4 to 5 inch white double flowers fill the garden with heavenly aroma. The leaves are also the largest of any gardenia in our gardens. At only 2 to 3 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide, Gold Doubloon is good fit as an accent in smaller garden spaces or containers or in groupings or as a low hedge in landscape borders, home foundation plantings or around outdoor living spaces where the fragrance and stunning flowers and foliage can be enjoyed from close up. The flowers are also great for cutting and display beautifully in your favorite vase.

 

Growing 2 to 3 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide, the Gold Doubloon Gardenia is ideal for use as an accent, in groupings, or as a low hedge in home foundation plantings and landscape borders. Its smaller stature also makes it a nice selection for mid to large size containers. Because they like a break from the midday afternoon sun, and cold northwesterly winter winds, we think gardenias are best planted on the east side of the home or other structures. Needless to say gardenias are a fine addition for sensory gardens and near windows or outdoor living spaces where the sweet fragrance can be enjoyed.

Suggested Spacing:  3 feet apart for solid hedge;  6 feet or more apart for space between plants
