Frostproof is a prolific bloomer of fragrant 2-3 flowers. Easy-to-grow and bloom, this new cultivar has a distinctive cup in the middle of the blossom, and the blooming season lasts from spring to fall. The plant has a nice symmetrical upright form with very attractive narrow green foliage that's about half the size of standard gardenia leaves. It can be maintained at a compact 12-14" tall in a pot, but grows to about 3' tall outdoors. It requires moist, somewhat acidic, soil and full to partial sun. As the name implies, its more tolerant of early frosts. Hardy to zone 6 with protection. Deer resistant. Wonderful hedge or foundation planting. Place close to outdoor living areas or entryways to enjoy the fragrance. Plant in mass to screen walls and fences or include with other fragrant bloomers in a container planting. Plant with other more cold hardy tropical plants like Hibiscus, Elephant Ears and Lantana. Combine in a fragrant planter with sweet smelling Jasmine, Lavender and Sage.
