CAPE JASMINE—GARDENIA 
Old Southern favorite with glossy leaves and masses of waxy white blossoms, very fragrant. Attains excellent height for 
foundation planting, massing, and for lawn specimens. Is one of the few heavy bloomers that give year around attractive¬ 
ness. Cut flowers are exquisite. Masses of Cape Jasmine along property lines and for borders are always beautiful and 
their growth is so uniform that very striking informal hedges may be grown of Cape Jasmines alone, a remarkably beauti¬ 
ful planting, summer and winter. The characteristic plant of the South. Blossoms highly valued in the North where it is 
known as the Gardenia of which romantic authors have written so freely.
