Description

Sumptuous, creamy-white double blooms unfurl like the finest garden roses, with a fragrance that's rich, warm and intensely jasmine-like. One sniff and you are hooked!

'Fool Proof' earns its name - it has been bred specifically for improved resilience and ease of care compared to traditional gardenia varieties.

From late spring through summer, those luxurious blooms keep coming, set against a backdrop of glossy, deep-green evergreen foliage that looks magnificent year-round. Grow it in a pot on a sunny, sheltered patio, moving it to cover for winter, and it will reward you spectacularly.

Bees and butterflies adore the nectar-rich blooms. Your patio will come alive with colour, scent and wildlife!

Supplied as an established plant in a 17cm pot, ready to plant.

Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
