It probably is then, J! This smells divine, quite small flowers and beautiful glossy leaves...
This one is just growing on the roadside...I think I'll have to get it for the garden, though!

You must! Although my shrub doesn't have glossy leaves.

It looks like the double form of Gardenia tahitensis. They're very beautiful!

I've got one with variagated leaves, ready to plant, Delonix...
and that's a good idea, Bloomer, I think I'll get our 'gardener/security' man to go out and get loads of cuttings from these roadside plants!! :))

Karenfranceafrica:

Gardenia species cuttings typically strike very quickly, when rooted.

That's good! I think that this would make a very nice background plant down the side of the garden... :)
