The August Beauty Gardenia, a cherished flowering shrub, is renowned for its stunning blossoms and captivating fragrance. Hailing from China, this evergreen beauty from the Rubiaceae family is a cultivar of the Gardenia jasminoides species.

Glossy, dark green leaves and showy white flowers define the August Beauty Gardenia. The alluring aroma of the blooms, which usually appear from late spring to early summer, brings a touch of elegance to any garden setting.

The August Beauty Gardenia thrives in well-drained, slightly acidic soil (pH between 5.0 and 6.5). Enhance its growth by enriching the soil with organic matter such as compost or peat moss, which boosts drainage and fertility. The plant prefers full to partial sunlight, as excess shade can hinder flower production.

Consistent watering is essential for the health of your August Beauty Gardenia. The soil should stay moist but not soggy. Overwatering can result in root rot and other fungal diseases, hence the importance of maintaining a balance.

After planting, water the plant thoroughly and apply a layer of organic mulch to maintain moisture and suppress weed growth.

Watering tips include deep and infrequent watering, aiming the water at the base of the plant to avoid wetting the foliage and adjusting watering based on rainfall. Signs of overwatering include yellowing leaves, wilting, and root rot.

Water 2-3 times per week during the first growing season. In the second growing season, water once or twice a week. Shortly after planting, check the soil an hour after watering to ensure that the soil is draining well.

Where Do Gardenias Grow Best?

Your new Flowerwood Gardenia bushes will remain hardy in USDA Zones 8 - 11.

Place your Gardenia bushes in slightly acidic soil with good drainage. Soil that is too alkaline results in yellowing leaves.

Do Gardenias Like Full Sun or Shade?

Plant this gardenia in Full Sun to Part Shade. If you are located in hotter zones, such as the southern United States, plant them somewhere where they will receive morning sun and afternoon shade.

If you are located in cooler zones, such as the northern United States, plant them in full sun to help ensure their winter survival.

How To Care For Gardenias?

Pruning helps shape the plant, remove dead or diseased branches, and stimulate new growth. Prune in early spring, after flowering has finished, making clean cuts above a leaf node or bud. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches, and avoid heavy pruning to maintain flower production. Always sanitize pruning tools before and after use to prevent disease spread.

Proper fertilization and pruning are crucial to the health and beauty of your August Beauty Gardenia. A high-nitrogen, acid-formulated fertilizer is ideal. Organic options like compost or well-rotted manure can also be beneficial.

Cheap but expected, worked as intended, none of them broke.
Size: 1000 Teaspoons
Seems to be cheap quality but what else can you expect for the price? I needed something cheap that would work for cold foods, and these delivered. They lasted me forever and I didn’t have any break, I just didn’t trust them with super hot foods. I will buy again in a heartbeat though because for everything else they work great. They are small spoons that don’t hold much, bend easily, are really lightweight and I wish they came in portions or wraps because after opening they sat there collecting dust through the hole in the box and so I had to transfer them to a closed container for sanitary purposes. Again though, I didn’t really expect anything else, so I’m happy regardless.

Pretty pathetic spoons, fantastic price to quantity ratio
Size: 1000 Teaspoons
Weak, not very rigid. But you can't beat the price or quantity! Don't serve these at a party, you will be made fun of.
