Frost Proof Gardenia

5 out of 5 49
Read 49 Reviews

Blooms on the Bush... Not the ground!

Finally... a fragrant gardenia plant that won't lose its flowers after late spring frosts.

 

I love Gardenias, but refuse to spray chemicals or cover my plants.

 

Old gardenia plants are insect prone and finicky. Your soil can't be too moist or too dry. Then the occasional late frost comes and wipes out your blooms for the whole season.

 

New Frost Proof Gardenias are unaffected by cold snaps and thrive on neglect. They adapt to a variety of soil conditions... do great in full sun or partial shade... and resist insects and disease. Even deer leave them alone.

 

The Frost Proof won the "2007 Garden Writers Best Plants Award" for good reasons.

 

They're just as beautiful as they are tough. You get huge, velvety white flowers that bloom in pairs.

 

They start blooming in late spring. These flowers last longer after being cut than old Gardenia varieties.

 

I planted several Gardenia bushes between my neighbor and I as a privacy hedge. We both pick flowers like crazy and can't make a dent in them.

 

I put the blooms in bowls throughout the house and even keep one in my car.

 

Frost Proof also makes a great evergreen foundation hedge. They are bushy and well branched. They look great pruned or left natural.

 

Plant several for a fragrance you can smell from a distance.

 

You won't find Frost Proof plants in big box stores for several more years. They only offer new plants when a large number of educated customers request the variety by name. Meanwhile, they continue to sell the same problem-plagued varieties.

 

We refuse to sell 2 quart or smaller sized plants. Instead, you get fully rooted, well developed 1 and 3 gallon plants that will give you blooms the very first season.

 

Order your gardenia plants now while our supply of large sizes is still available.

I love the Frost Proof Gardenia, I have 2 right next to my entryway and every summer when i come home there is this wonderful aroma filling our patio.

Marie
I am so thrilled with the Frost Proof Gardenia and its blooms, they are so prolific and stay on the bush. Yeah a Gardenia in Oklahoma! so far so good.

Rick From East Texas
I just bought 8 so that I can plant 4 on each side of my house - I love the gardenias - I even have some in the back and last year I bought 8 dwarf gardenias - they smell wonderful - I wished I can see a Frost Proof Gardenia in maturiy so that I would know how big they will get. Thanks Rick in east Texas

Jaime
I just wanted to say I was impressed not only with my 5 healthy Frost Proof Gardenias I ordered but also the excellent customer service. My plants were in great condition and a great size considering I was worried they'd be small. We also added two plants at last minute and they were so helpful in fulfilling my order. Thanks Brighter Blooms! I'll recommend ya!

Lynne from New Jersey
I really am enjoying these Gardenia Bushes, bought three and all are blooming well. Will order more.

Anita McCord
I love love love Gardenia bushes! So my daughter bought me two of your Frost Proof Gardenias for Mother's Day.

Michelle
The Frost Proof Gardenia is amazing! I live in Arkansas and bought one last year- put it in a planter next to my front door and the smell is amazing!

Kathryn from Oklahoma
I am just thrilled with my frost proof gardenias! I have always loved gardenias, but this frost proof is doing great in my garden. I will order more!

Vicki
I ordered 3 of the 1 Gallon Frost Proof Gardenias. I planted the two weekends ago and all three of them already have buds on them!

Nathan
I bought 13 frost proof gardenias. I planted them just before the 4th of July, and they're doing great so far. It took a while for them to flower, but it's October 6th and we're still getting beautiful, huge, white flowers this late in the year! I'm thinking they'll really explode next summer!

Dee in TN
Planted this gardenia shrub last spring following placement and planting instructions to the tee. Plants survived this last winter here in Eastern TN. Blooms this year are now beautifull.

K Petit
I love my 3 gallon Frost Proof Gardenia. It has lots of blooms.

Sue
I ordered and planted my frost proof gardenia last Spring in May. I had quite a few flowers right away.

Diane and Charles Scott
We bought a Frost Proof Gardenia last spring and planted it next to our patio. I cannot wait to order more to go all the way around. They are incredible! Lynchburg, VA

Rodica
I have two Frost proof Gardenias close to my patio and I will order two next spring. These gardenia plants bloomed the whole season, they are incredible. Cherry Hill, NJ

Steve Hochstadt
I planted one of your frost proof gardenias about 2 months ago and it is thriving. It has produced many flowers and has grown to about double its original size. I live in central Illinois, right near the edge of its hardiness zone, but I have a protected spot and I am hopeful it will come back strong in the spring.

James Doehring
I ordered 12 Frost Proof Gardenias for a hedge. Excellent!

Sally
I am a "pot" gardner and have a frost proof gardenia for it's second summer. I left it outside against the house in its pot and lo and behold it sprouted beautifully this spring. YAY! I live in the mountains of western North Carolina and we had a pretty brutally cold winter in 2008-2009. Thanks so much. I'm hoping for the same kind of success next spring.

Sarah in Tampa, FL
I purchased 2 Frost Proof Gardenias in the spring, and they are doing quite well. They have nice dark green foliage and have grown quite a bit over the summer. I planted them right next to my new patio, so I can't wait to smell them next spring while enjoying the new outdoor space.

E. Scully
I bought 2 of the 1 gallon frost proof gardenias. They both bloomed this summer and the scent was spectacular! Absolutely love them. I will be ordering more next Spring!

Marty Terzian
My Frost Proof Gardenia is a healthy looking plant and growing beautifully. I thank you for all the courtesies you have extended to me and do appreciate your company. Your word is your bond and that is very good is todays society. I am surprised that the plant has done as well as it has for I have tried 4 or 5 other gardenias in the same area and they did not survive but this one has done well in our terribly hot and dry summer here in west Texas and I'm looking forward to blooms next spring. Thank you for asking.

Matt in Pa z6
I bought 2 Frost Proof Gardenias in June. Planted them beside my porch near the hot tub. The Gardenias have doubled in size with lots of blooms. I will be ordering more this spring

Shirley Thoman
I bought the frost proof Gardenia. The first month they bloomed and are beautiful

Don in Texas
My 2 Frost Proof Gardenias are doing great! Very healthy!

P. Wells
I ordered 6 Frost Proof Gardenias in the spring and all are doing great.

JV
I ordered three Frost Proof Gardenias at the beginning of summer and they are doing great and all three had some flowers and significant growth.

Richard
My frost proof gardenia was purchased as a birthday present for my sister because she enjoyed the fragrance of my father's previous gardenia plants. She has it planted in a container on her outdoor patio and recently emailed me a photo of her first flower bloom. She is very happy with it so far and indicated that it is doing well and has many more flower buds on it.

peteykgirl in texas
I'm soooo excited. I have planted dozens of them- I love them!

Gabby's Ma Ma
I live in Ocala, FL and I bought 10 frost Proof Gardenia 3 gallon size in the early fall. It is Now January, and they are all doing quite well. In the spring I will buy more to make a a hedge. I am very glad I made the right choice on the bushes.

Chrispy
I have tried to grow gardenias for years & years, never any luck. I bought a frost proof gardenia the beginning of spring & now it's blooming like crazy. I live in Oregon, have my gardenia in a very large container on my front porch. I will be ordering more.

Ann
We moved into our new house last September and in the garden we have found 3 frost proof gardenias! 2 are starting to flower now. Beautiful!

Jen
Fantastic plants. They were a little smaller when they arrived that I hoped, but they grew fast and bloomed the first year. Very happy with my plants.

Joel
We bought a frost proof gardenia last spring, and it was beautiful until I moved it somewhere else. I'm anxious to see what it does again in the spring.

Gicela in TX
I love this plant! The blooms give off a delightful scent all around my yard!!

Dianne in SC
I bought 2 of the frost proof gardenias and they have performed beautifully!

Sarah
I planted my frost proof gardenia plant in a large pot and placed it on my front porch where it gets morning sun and afternoon shade. This plant went through a long period of stress after I received it in the mail and has needed lots of TLC, but is now healthy and green, and starting blooming gorgeous flowers this week.

Frank in NJ
This Gardenia is great. It is the first of many that I have had that does not drop its flower buds. I have it in the greenhouse in the Fall/Winter, and keep it on the deck in the late Spring and Summer. The flowers really have a great scent and remind us of more tropical climates that we have enjoyed.

Dar
They are a wonderful surprise. The gardenias are blooming profusely in our back yard landscape. I have never had such good luck with gardenias. I will add more later on.

Krista
The plant arrived in great condition. It has already bloomed for us. Thanks!

Shari
I have just started gardenias this year (potted plants in my home, 5 of them). They bloomed immediately after coming home. One bush has been repotted into three and I am having trouble with yellowing leaves and dropping buds. I am using coffee for my acid in the soil. I am just going to continue loving them. I will let you you know how the transplanted ones recover

Sue
l bought 18 Frost Gardenia early this spring are doing great! l live in Northern East Bay, California. l can't wait for blooms this year!

CRF
I planted two of these, one as a border plant; the other in a pot. Both started blooming almost immediately. They look and smell gorgeous.

Janet
I have 4 frost proof gardenia bushes. 2 are blooming like crazy!

Sarah
I received my "Frost Proof Gardenia" plant last week and it arrived with a bloom already opened. I immediately got it planted and another bloom opened and it has many buds just waiting to grow and show off their beauty. I always wanted a gardenia bush but was unsuccessful until now. It is so exciting to watch it grow with beautiful green leaves, lots of buds and the velvet blooms already opened. I hope it continues to do so well. I would like to have more and read of many people growing them in pots. Since my space is limited and already planted for this Spring, I may have to order some more and put them in pots on my deck. So thrilled. Thanks so much.

Debbie
I am amazed that my gardenia has survived living in Maryland. When I first got it, I planted in a container and kept it on my deck. After I moved, I planted outside. It stays green all year around and blooms all summer. It is a hardy, no fuss bush that gives pleasure all year round.

George
I have 6 frost proof gardenia bushes growing in pots. All are blooming here in Wisconsin, the smell on my patio is wonderful! And I've only had them for 3 months... they're awesome.

Judes
I bought 3 plants to put by my front door. It took a while (I am so impatient) but one day there were 5 or 6 blooms smelling absolutely enticing. Since then there are a few more; we are away for 2 weeks and I am hoping for more beautiful blooms upon our return. I love how they were packaged and highly recommend this plant.

Peggy
I bought a 1 gallon Frost Proof Gardenia last year, and one this year. My one year old Gardenia plant is more than double the size this year, started blooming in June and is still blooming now in August. I'm so in love with this plant that I'm buying more and replacing roses.

TN Gardener
I'm in Zone 7 and bought fifteen of these at the beginning of summer. Three of them have died and I think I've managed to save two others that were starting to look bad. The plants are beautiful and were in excellent condition upon arrival.
