Then I realized I was smelling a very soft, sweet odor and I looked around and saw the African Gardenia in full bloom. The small flowers have pale pink petals with the tiny yellow stamen in the center. They are in clusters and just so dainty and charming. I just had to share them with you all. Enjoy. The first picture is one of the entire plant. JB |
