The scent of Gardenias is a heavy, heady aroma, and just a tiny whiff transports me back to the ’50s in South Memphis. I have tried to grow Gardenias several times with no luck. I planted this bush last spring, watered patiently, watched incessantly, but no blooms. I have always watered it from the backside of the fence, which is the reason I didn’t even see the bud for this bloom. I was so happily surprised to discover it yesterday! Of course I had to make a digital page about it for my Summer of 2011 book. The Duetica Mandolyn font was ideal for capturing the gentle grace of this fragrant flower.
