Product Overview
Diamond Spire Gardenia is a columnar gardenia from Southern Living Plants. This variety produces loads of re-blooming daisy-shaped flowers that will perfume your garden with that heavenly gardenia scent from spring through summer. When this gardenia stops blooming, the unique spiraling structure of the foliage on its branches really takes the show. As an evergreen, this shrub will provide visual interest in your garden year-round, making it vital specimen planting in your landscape or a great candidate as a centerpiece of your container planting. Diamond Spire grows to 4 ft. tall at maturity, making it a dwarf specimen among other gardenias, and the growth rate of the plant will give you ample time to prune it back into a tidy habit.

The plant arrived in great condition and is doing fine so far. Only had a few blooms originally but seems to be blooming better now. It's grown a bit bigger since being plant and looks good.

To early to review. Planted in late spring but this heat (mid May) is taking its toll on all my plants, not just this one. I water every 2 days...we'll see how they do.
