Gardenia's ready to plant

So if you will remember, in the spring when the gardenia's were blooming. I got some cuttings and smelled the sweet aroma of the flowers for a few days, then cut the flowers off and left the stems in water. I showed you a picture of the roots that had started spouting. I gave some advice that you should get you some cuttings from your neighbors bush and root you some yourselves.


Well if you did, you have something like this now.











And if you put them at a window where they were getting a little light then the tops should look like this.












OK now your gardenia's are ready to plant.
Now is the perfect time to plant because they still have time to take root in the ground before cold weather sets in.

So, if you didn't do it this year, maybe you will next year.
Good luck and God Bless
