Who can resist a gardenia? Really; who? Every garden center I have been to with gardenias all innocent passerbys always bow down to it and inhale. What does it stir up in your imagination? It reminds me of Hawaii where they produce large flowers with little or no care. The climate seems to dote on them there. Other women think of South America, Bali or India. We all want to claim the gardenia for our own geographic location and, of course, tuck a flower in our hair.

Garden Gardenia
Who can resist a gardenia? Really; who? Every garden center I have been to with gardenias all innocent passerbys always bow down to it and inhale. What does it stir up in your imagination? It reminds me of Hawaii where they produce large flowers with little or no care. The climate seems to dote on them there. Other women think of South America, Bali or India. We all want to claim the gardenia for our own geographic location and, of course, tuck a flower in our hair.
