The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 3 December 2018 7 Comments

I could keep this alive as long as cut flowers, right? Brussel's Bonsai 8-inch White Gardenia in Clay Pot: "Your small 4 year old bonsai will arrive at 6-inch to 8-inch tall in a 6-inch container and will perform best outdoors." $35 at Lowes. Harry & David has a nicer looking one (in the image, anyway) for $69.99, or there are two sizes at Bonsai Boy ($49.99 - $69.95).

    If I didn’t have a black thumb and live in a van, I’d get one of these?

      Here you go — artificial “silk” gardenias, in all sorts of improbable colors! Purple! Royal Blue!

    Ohhhh I want that! Sadly, my gardenia stopped flowering months ago 🙁 now it just forms buds, and then the buds brown and fall off. It’s very sad.

      Gardenias in general would rather be outside, I think.
