I couldn't help myself - had to jump over here after commenting on your last to take a long look at this...and it's beautiful, Donald...you captured the creamy elegance of a gardenia perfectly - not one flaw on it - a perfect specimen and you did it complete justice! My 6x5 foot bush died over our past harsh winter...and boy, do I miss that springtime fragrance...wish this was a "scratch and sniff"! :) :) #1382130

Thank you Val. I to thought I was going to loose both of my bushes to winter. However, to my surprise they both came back beautifully with many flowers. But this Texas heat and drought is really taking a toll on all my plants. Thanks for the gracious comment and visiting my gallery again. Have a great day. #9441110
