WEDNESDAY: Fragrance for the House




I am particularly fond of the dwarf gardenia bushes that I have planted in front of my house. I had trailing gardenia at the last house but when they weren't available for this one I "settled" for dwarf. I am liking the dwarf even better than the trailing.


The fragrance is amazing. It also reminds me of bible school when I was around 10 or 11. The church which I visited because our church had the bible school at night, had gardenia bushes planted around it.


My one dislike is that the blooms are so short lived and turn brown. I am just not up to much dead-heading these days so my bushes are not as pretty as they could be.
