The August Beauty Gardenia, a cherished flowering shrub, is renowned for its stunning blossoms and captivating fragrance. Hailing from China, this evergreen beauty from the Rubiaceae family is a cultivar of the Gardenia jasminoides species.

Glossy, dark green leaves and showy white flowers define the August Beauty Gardenia. The alluring aroma of the blooms, which usually appear from late spring to early summer, brings a touch of elegance to any garden setting.

The August Beauty Gardenia thrives in well-drained, slightly acidic soil (pH between 5.0 and 6.5). Enhance its growth by enriching the soil with organic matter such as compost or peat moss, which boosts drainage and fertility. The plant prefers full to partial sunlight, as excess shade can hinder flower production.

Consistent watering is essential for the health of your August Beauty Gardenia. The soil should stay moist but not soggy. Overwatering can result in root rot and other fungal diseases, hence the importance of maintaining a balance.

After planting, water the plant thoroughly and apply a layer of organic mulch to maintain moisture and suppress weed growth.

Watering tips include deep and infrequent watering, aiming the water at the base of the plant to avoid wetting the foliage and adjusting watering based on rainfall. Signs of overwatering include yellowing leaves, wilting, and root rot.

Water 2-3 times per week during the first growing season. In the second growing season, water once or twice a week. Shortly after planting, check the soil an hour after watering to ensure that the soil is draining well.

Where Do Gardenias Grow Best?

Your new Flowerwood Gardenia bushes will remain hardy in USDA Zones 8 - 11.

Place your Gardenia bushes in slightly acidic soil with good drainage. Soil that is too alkaline results in yellowing leaves.

Do Gardenias Like Full Sun or Shade?

Plant this gardenia in Full Sun to Part Shade. If you are located in hotter zones, such as the southern United States, plant them somewhere where they will receive morning sun and afternoon shade.

If you are located in cooler zones, such as the northern United States, plant them in full sun to help ensure their winter survival.

How To Care For Gardenias?

Pruning helps shape the plant, remove dead or diseased branches, and stimulate new growth. Prune in early spring, after flowering has finished, making clean cuts above a leaf node or bud. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches, and avoid heavy pruning to maintain flower production. Always sanitize pruning tools before and after use to prevent disease spread.

Proper fertilization and pruning are crucial to the health and beauty of your August Beauty Gardenia. A high-nitrogen, acid-formulated fertilizer is ideal. Organic options like compost or well-rotted manure can also be beneficial.

Great wallet
Color: Steven Medium Brown, Size: One Size
Great and very durable wallet. They are slim, fit well in a pocket, and are thin, unless you have lots of CC and money in it.

Slim and elegant, beautiful leather
Color: Derrick Brown, Size: One Size
I bought this wallet for my son for his 36th birthday. I love that it is a true Fossil wallet and all that goes with anything that is a Fossil product. Style, masculine elegance, beautiful soft grain leather, and the Fossil logo embedded on the front, right bottom of the billfold. It came in different colors but I chose the soft brown one. This is also very sleek, has plenty of compartments for ID, cash, credit and business cards, and it is RFID blocked. I didn't realize when I purchased this that it is to be worn in the front pocket of the pant. It is a fashion made for men who don't appreciate a wallet in the back. It can be very uncomfortable and someone can easily lift the wallet out of the back pocket...So Fossil is producing this item to wear in the front for easy access and protection. It is small but no less accommodating. I showed it to one of my other son's and he wished I'd get one for him, and he is very fashion-forward, but practical. So I'm very pleased with my purchase although I haven't heard from the birthday boy yet! Also it came in the usual Fossil tin box that all their products are housed in-original with a bit of funk, perfect for any aged man.

Sturdy and slim yet spacious and comfortable
Color: Derrick Brown, Size: One Size
Very nice! Fit about 10 cards total as well as about 10 bills. Would like to see how it holds up as I just got it today but I like it enough to write a review! I really like this wallet. I’m a bit of a stickler when it comes to having things near my butt area, but this fits great in my back pocket. I know it’s a front pocket billfold, but hey, I live on the wild side. I can wait until corona passes and I can walk up to the bar and whip this bad boy out to start a tab. It smells like a cowboy but presents like a stock broker. If you didn’t know me, and I pulled out this wallet, you would be very mystified. “Is this man classy? I think he might be! Look at fossil Derrick Front pocket Billfold” “wait, is that Derrick himself?” I’m not Derrick, but thinking about switching my name to Derrick because of how good this wallet is. The leather looks like it was cut from a Waygu bull with horns too big for a Cadillac. I’ll tell you what, this SOB is purtttttty. Would recommend to friends, family, and acquaintances. I would never pull this out in front of my enemy, in fear he might get the same wallet as me. The fossil message said this wallet is one of a kind, so the odds of someone else getting the same one is impossible. So, if I am the only one who has this wallet, how will anyone in the world find this review helpful? I guess you’ll just have to take a chance at getting a similar wallet to mine.

Nice simple wallet
Color: Derrick Brown, Size: One Size
I purchased this for my husband. It’s one inch shorter than his previous wallet, which had us worried at first. However, it fits all his cards. It has a nice look to it and time of good quality. My husband says he’s happy with it and really likes it.
