Variegated Creeping Dwarf Gardenia – 1 Gallon Pot

I love these gardenias! The nurseries I have been to have never heard of variegated gardenias. I was more than willing to spread the news and plug Wilson Bros. The plants arrived in great shape just as promised. Can’t wait for blooms! I will be ordering from Wilson Brothers again soon!! Thank you————————————–You’re welcome! Thanks for the kind words and awesome review! We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

I recently ordered a dwarf fig tree and two gardenia’s. I was astounded at how beautifully packaged these plants were, so careful and protected. The plants themselves are gorgeous, happy and ready for their new life. I have been gardening-landscaping for over 40 years and have never seen such professional handling of plants. You can sure feel the love involved in the growing and shipping of them. I am very impressed and will continue to look to Wilson Bros. for future purchases!—————————————————————Thanks so much for your review.

At first I was a little hesitant to purchase a plant for delivery in the extreme heat we have been experiencing. But the plant was in excellent condition, very little soil loss, and it was still moist! This was after a four day transit across the country.————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come!

I didn’t even know these existed until I saw them here. They are exactly what I need for large pots along narrow path. They were shipped quickly, well packed, and arrived in excellent condition. There was no transplant shock when I planted them, and they appear to be thriving. I’m very happy with them.————————————————-We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

What a delight to find this dwarf variegated gardenia at this website! The ordering process was so easy, and my healthy plant arrived just a few days later!

Wilson Brothers is a reliable company for all of your garden needs.——————————————————-We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come!

Plant arrived in perfect condition, very full and covered in buds. It took awhile, and I was beginning to wonder, but now almost every day one of those little suckers explodes into flower. I couldn’t be more pleased.——————————————-We are so glad you are pleased with your purchase! Thanks for the kind words and great review! Beth | WBG 🙂

I received my variegated creeping dwarf gardenia within 4 days of ordering. This was a very short timeframe compared to other online planting services. (I also ordered from 4 other retailers and Wilson Borothers was by far the fastest.)
My five gardenias arrived healthy, green, and moist. I have planted them and they are surviving. Three of the five plants arrived full of buds but they haven’t opened yet.
I live in zone 8a and I have an eastern exposure. So I’m hoping these do well. I also have several mature trees that will provide some shade and allow filtered sunlight. I amended the soil a year ago and added sulfur pellets this spring to help acidify our native alkaline sweet Texas soil.
Compared to other gardenias, I’ve read that these grow more slowly. That seems to be true. The other gardenias I planted already spread out a bit and started blossoming once transplanted into the ground. I wanted something with a variegated leaf to break up the monotone green shrubs. So I think this should do well.—————————–They will do well, just give them a little time. We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come!

Came on time. Was in lovely shape.——————————We are so glad you are pleased with your purchase! Thanks for the great review! Beth | WBG 🙂

The plant arrived in very good condition, It was larger than I expected, very well branched and full of buds. A few days after it arrived it was full of blooms. The flowers smelled wonderful — the same as a traditional gardenia. The variegated leaves are spectacular. I had, personally, never seen a variegated gardenia; nor one that trailed the ground. I am beyond pleased with my choice. Thank you Wilson Bros for sending such a wonderful specimen. Once again I was not disappointed. Wilson Bros is becoming my favorite on-line nursery.—————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

Plants are settling into the garden beautifully. With all the rain we have been having here in Florida only helps the plants to get more established. Love, love them a lot. Good accent in my white and green planting area.———————————–We are so happy you are pleased with your purchase! Beth | WBG

We ordered and planted this gardenia last fall. It arrived safely and healthy and is thriving with many buds soon to open. Looking forward to the beautiful fragrant flowers.————————————-We are so glad you are pleased! Beth | WBG

The plants came packaged very securely and in excellent condition. I have them in the ground in a partial shaded area and they are doing great. Just beautiful variegated leaves@———————————-Thanks for the great review! Beth | WBG

Thanks for the beautiful plants! I was skeptical of buying without seeing the actual plant, but was not disappointed with my order. They were very well packaged to survive shipping. Each one had a cardboard collar and supports to keep it from shifting or getting crushed. The pots were wrapped to retain moisture. They are good sized plants, very full and healthy. I just hope I can keep them that way! I will order again without hesitation.——————————————Thanks for the great review! Beth | WBG

The plant arrived in great shape. I look forward to adding this lovely sub-shrub to my garden.—————————————Hi Lelia, Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review of the Variegated Creeping Dwarf Gardenia. We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! 🙂

I am very pleased to have found your website. I find the most amazing plants to select from, you have a great variety of choices. Most importantly is the information you supply for the care and maintenance of the plants and trees.
My first order was for a Leatherleaf Mahonia and a variegated Creeping Dwarf gardenia. They both arrived very healthy and extremely well packaged. I could not plant them for a couple of days after I received them but they stayed healthy.
It’s been over a week now that I following your instructions planted them and they look great and still very healthy.
Also, I suggested that you incorporate a wish list option on your website and the suggestion was incorporated to your website within a couple of weeks. I wish you great success. Your customer service is very accommodating.
Thank you!—————————————–WBG Reply: Hi JoAnn, Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review of the Variegated Creeping Dwarf Gardenia. We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks so much for the kind words!

Love this gardenia which I just received several weeks ago. I planted them in pots on the front porch, which is completely shaded. They started out well with lots of blossoms. However, for the last couple of weeks they have been losing their leaves and the blossoms are falling off. Looking pretty ragged! Trust this is only temporary transplant shock – we’ll see. ——————— WBG Reply: Hi Jan – Thanks for your review of the Variegated Dwarf Gardenia. Our crop this spring (2018) has been superb; extra healthy and full of buds and blossoms. We are still shipping from the crop we shipped yours from and all of ours are doing fine but are naturally shedding some leaves. Gardenias use a lot of energy to produce their flowers which naturally causes the plant to shed from 1/3 to a 1/2 of it’s older leaves during and after the spring bloom. The interior leaves usually turn yellow before dropping. Still we want to make sure what your plants are going through is this shedding and not some other problem. if not natural shedding, it could be soil moisture. Gardenia growing in pots like a consistently damp to moist soil, but not constantly soggy or wet. First, use the finger test to check the soil moisture down to a depth of 3 to 4 inches. If too dry deep soak the soil until water runs out of the hole in the bottom. It’s best to deep soak the soil less frequently than to splash a little water every day. Then allow the top 2 inches or so of soil to dry somewhat before watering again. If too wet, make sure there are drainage holes in the bottom of the pots and that water is draining sufficiently through these. If not, either drill drainage holes in the pots or switch to other containers that have the holes. One other thing can be soil type. In our planting instructions we always suggest a premium potting mix or potting soil or a 50/50 combination thereof. Avoid the use of native soil (dirt) as it usually retains too much moisture. Keep us posted and don’t hesitate to contact us by email if you need more details or have any questions or concerns. – Brent | Wilson Bros Gardens

Beautiful when planted! Looking forward to flowering with variegated leaves backgrounds! ——————– WBG Reply: Hi Pam – Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review of the Dwarf Variegated Gardenia. We hope you enjoy yours for years to come. We couldn’t agree more that this variegated one is a beautiful standout in the garden. I have three of them in a grouping in my own landscape and they’re doing great since planting 3 years ago. Wasn’t sure if they’d stand up to the cold winter temps we have in north-central Georgia but they’ve come through two winters with no cold damage at all. Same goes for the upright Variegated August beauty Gardenia. Thanks again and let us know if there’s ever anything else we can help you with. We’re at your service! – Brent | Wilson Bros Gardens

Wilson Brothers is impressive!! As usual, the variegated gardenias arrived in great condition. I am so impressed with the quality of the plants I have received. When I can’t find something locally, my go-to nursery is Wilson Brothers, which is the same hardiness zone in which I live. They have shipped me dozens of plants, all healthy, well pruned, and all performing fabulously. ——————- WBG Reply: Hi Eileen – Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your review and for the compliments.
