Have you ever seen a pink gardenia?

Kopsia fruticosa - Pink Gardenia

Have you ever seen a pink gardenia?
  • 🌸 Kopsia fruticosa also called "Pink Gardenia", is one of nature's most exquisite and elusive treasures. Technically not a Gardenia, this beauty is a close relative of Plumeria and Adenium as well as Tabernaemontana (also often confused with Gardenia). All these beauties belong to the esteemed plant family Apocynaceae.
  • 🌸 This bush has been in bloom for us for many months, since Fall, through Winter, and and is still flowering!
