{Heavenly Gardenia Jasminoides 'Aimee Yoshioka'}


This is the season of so many heavenly fragrances in our garden.
So again, I will share it all with you, my dear blog-readers, family and friends, whomever finds me out here.

In my previous post: {May 22 Gardenia by Royal Albert and blooming Gardenias in Baccarat vase} it was with ordinary Gardenia blooms but now we have the HUGE, corsage style Gardenia jasminoides 'Aimee Yoshioka' 


Again being presented on some Royal Albert Gardenia china inside a French Baccarat crystal vase.
This time it is the large cake platter.

Beside the Aimee Yoshioka there is another Gardenia jasminoides, that's equally stunning and holds as well as a cut flower, as this one. Contrary to the ordinary Gardenia jasminoides, which turns yellow already in a day! But, due to the heavy tropical rain showers we've received the last weeks, I could not have one right now. It had new buds but that is wrong timing...
Gardenia jasminoides 'Aimee Yoshioka' in California, does have them both! This is the Gardenia jasminoides Miami Supreme so you at least have an idea about its beauty!

Check: TopTropicals Gardenia out as well and don't forget to scroll down to see the lovely pictures of all these beauties on their website! 
They even go on to say that Gardenia Aimee Yoshioka  is also called First Love...

  1. Liebe Mariette, wußtest du, dass du Gardenien relativ einfach selbst züchten kannst? Der Duft ist zwar recht stark, aber wunderschön. Einen kleinen Trieb einfach in Wasser stellen und waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarten. Es dauert ewig, bis sich Wurzeln bilden, aber sie kommen. Versprochen. Ich habe es vor gut 2 Jahren versucht und inzwischen konnte ich den kleinen Strauch auspflanzen und er fühlt sich im Garten wohl ;)

    Ganz liebe Grüße

  2. Dear Mariette,
    Gardenias are always such elegant and beautiful flowers. And with that heavy scent they give me the imagination of a porcelain rose. Your Royal Albert Gardenia china is so adorable, I always enjoy to see it.
    Greetings, Johanna

  5. Liebe Mariette, ich bin zufällig auf deinem Blog gelandet und sehe hier deine wunderschönen GArdenien, oh ich liebe sie und ihren Duft!! Leider sind sie hier in Deutschland nur als Zimmerpflanze zu halten, wie beneide ich Dich darum sie als Strauch oder Hecke (gesehen in Kuba) im GArten zu haben. Ich bin Gärtnerin und liebe alles was mit Pflanzen und Natur zu tun hat. Vielleicht schaust Du ja auch bei mir mal rein, ich würde mich sehr darüber freuen. Leider ist mein Englisch nicht so gut das ich Dir dieses hier schreiben könnte, aber Du kannst mir gerne in Englisch antworten!!
    viele liebe Grüße
    Marlies

  7. Wunderschön, liebe Mariette!!!
    Und der Geruch muss traumhaft sein!!! Bei uns blühen auch gerade Jasmin und Rosen und ... ach, es ist ein wahres Duftfeuerwerk. Leider ist das Wetter aber im Moment nicht so erfreulich, dass es uns in den Garten lockt um den Duft zu genießen... es ist kühl und regnet seit Tagen. Nur an meinm Nicht-geburtstags-Fest (und in der Woche davor) war es zum Glück heiß und sonnig und weitgehend trocken! :o)
    Alles Liebe, Traude

  8. Hallo liebe Mariette, ganz lieben Dank für das Lesen meines Blogs, es freut mich sehr das er Dir gefällt!! Natürlich bist Du nun auch in der Verlosung drin und hast sogar 2 Gewinnchancen, einmal als neue Leserin in der Zusatsverlosung und dann noch in der Hauptverlosung, also ich drück Dir ganz fest die Daumen!!
    einen schönen Abend noch... ähm wie sieht es denn bei Dir mit dem Zeitunterschied aus? Meine Tochter ist ja noch in Boston und dort sind es 6 Std. zurück!!
    ganz liebe Grüße
    Marlies
    PS: Übrigens dein Deutsch ist ja perfekt :-)) wäre froh wenn ich das von meinem Englisch auch behaupten könnte grins!!

  11. Hoi Mariette,

    Wat een prachtige Gardenias. Het lijken wel rozen, zo mooi! Zelf heb ik ze niet in mijn tuin staan, maar wie weet, als er ergens een keer een plekje vrijkomt!

    Wens je een fijn weekend!

    Lieve groet, Madelief

  14. Liebe Meriette,

    ich bin ganz verzaubert von deinen wunderschönen Gardenien. So etwas Schönes würde bei uns vermutlich leider nie wachsen, weil es viel zu kühl dafür ist. Habe es im vergangenen Jahr mit Kamelien probiert, aber die haben noch nicht einmal einen Winter überlebt. Leider.
    Ich wünsche dir viel Freude mit den wunderschönen Gardenien.

    Liebe Grüße aus dem Norden Deutschlands schickt dir
    Elvira
