You can space the plants as you would for a hedge '– 4 feet apart '– or you can space them more widely to add definition to your yard without growing a solid hedge.

Simply space as many shrubs as needed to form the screen, planting them 4 feet apart, and at least 4 feet away from any structures. (If you're planting a green screen in front of an A\/C unit, make sure to place plants so their mature size does not block the air flow.) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eContainer Plant\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If you're tired of planting annuals in pots each year, only to have to re-plant the containers each year, consider potting perennials. If you've never thought about planting a shrub in a container, Frost Proof Gardenia is a super potted plant choice. These shrubs need good drainage, which containers offer; and because of its compact size, Frost Proof Gardenia nicely fills a large pot. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCut Flowers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e Your formal dining table will look even more elegant when dressed with fragrant Frost Proof Gardenia blossoms floating in shallow bowls of water.

Although you may not have an occasion to wear a traditional corsage because of today's less-formal styles, you can always break with tradition and pin a fragrant gardenia blossom to a summer jacket as you step out to lunch or attend any social affair.

In the cooler weather of these seasons, shrubs have an easier time acclimating to a new site as their root systems begin developing. Although you can also plant Frost Proof Gardenia shrubs in the summer, you must be diligent in watering them sufficiently so their roots don't dry out. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere to Plant\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e Many landscape plants fail because they were simply planted in the wrong spot.

Frost Proof Gardenia grows as a perennial in USDA plant hardiness zones 7 through 11. It is marginally hardy in some areas of zone 6, which means it may grows as a perennial in protected garden spots or regions with warmer micro-climates. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSun or Shade\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In most gardens, the best spot to plant Frost Proof Gardenia is where it receives full sun in the morning '– 4 to 6 hours '– and filtered or partial sun in the afternoon. However, it also tolerates full sun in all but the harshest climates across its hardiness range.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSoil \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Frost Proof Gardenia adapts to many types of soils, including sand, loam and clay. Regardless of the type of soil, the soil must drain well. If your garden spot contains heavy clay, you'll want to loosen the soil by adding organic amendments. As an option, you can plant Frost Proof Gardenia in a raised bed so the water drains more easily.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eMature Plant Size\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This is a very important step in deciding where to plant your gardenia. Although the plants we ship to you are healthy and full, they are still actively growing and have not reached their mature size yet. Don't select a planting site based on the immature size of your Frost Proof Gardenia; instead, consider what it will look like when it's fully grown and plant accordingly so you don't crowd other plants or locate it too close to structures, such as fences or outside walls.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBefore you Plant\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e Even before you remove new plants from their nursery pots, take the time to prepare their new \"home\" '– the planting site '– to give them the best leg up for healthy growth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSoil pH\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The pH of your soil is important for growing healthy Frost Proof Gardenias. These plants grow best in acidic soils, from 5.0 to 6.0. If you take a soil sample to your local Cooperative Extension Service, they'll test the soil pH and advise you what to add the soil if you need to adjust the pH. In soils that are too alkaline, gardenia leaves may turn yellow. If you plant Frost Proof gardenia shrubs as a border along a concrete sidewalk, driveway or patio, the gradual leaching of limestone in the cement may raise the soil pH outside gardenia's optimal acidic range. Just keep an eye on your plants and notice if some of the leaves begin to turn yellow so you can adjust the soil pH, if needed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAmending the Soil\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Soil amendments are not fertilizers, although some amendments do provide nutritional value. Amendments enrich and improve the soil structure, creating a healthier environment for plant roots to grow and develop. It's better to amend an entire growing site than to add amendments to individual planting holes. You can get your Frost Proof Gardenias off to a healthier start by spreading 2 inches of organic matter, such as compost, on top of the soil and incorporating it to a depth of 6 inches.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eUnderground Utilities\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If you have underground utility lines, call a locate service company so they can mark the ground above any buried utility cables before you dig.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Plant\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePlanting Hole Depth and Width\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It's essential to plant Frost Proof Gardenias at the proper depth. Dig planting holes no deeper than the root ball of each plant. You can even plant gardenia shrubs so they're slightly higher than the soil level to make sure they're not buried too deeply. If you didn't amend the entire planting site, dig planting holes three times the width of each root ball. After you place plants in the holes, backfill with the soil you removed, and very lightly firm the soil around each plant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eMulching\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Frost Proof Gardenias like moist, but not soggy, soil. By applying a 2- to 3-inch layer of mulch around each plant, such as pine straw, chopped leaves or shredded bark, this will help keep the soil moist. Frost Proof Gardenias also have fairly shallow root systems, so a layer of mulch helps protect their roots from damage. Pull the mulch away from the base of each plant; otherwise new roots may grow into the mulch instead of into the soil.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWatering\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Water your newly-planted gardenias thoroughly so the entire root system is moistened. If natural rainfall doesn't provide 1 inch of water each week, hand-water your gardenias so their roots stay hydrated. Direct the water at the base of each plant instead of soaking the foliage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOngoing Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWater\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Continue to water your gardenias deeply once a week during any periods of drought or low rainfall, particularly in the heat of summer.

They will perform a soil test and interpret the results, making recommendations for any needed fertilizer. Typically, you'll fertilize your Frost Proof Gardenias twice a year '– a light application after frost has passed in spring and another application 6 weeks later. This helps maximize the bloom potential of your plants. Look for fertilizers that are formulated for other acid-loving plants, such as azaleas and camellias and follow all label recommendations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePruning\/Shaping\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Frost Proof Gardenias don't need much '– if any '– pruning. If you want to shape your shrubs, prune them after their initial heavy blooming in summer. You can pinch out just the growing tips to make plants bushier, or you can cut plants back to reduce their height. Don't prune past late summer, which can reduce the number of next year's blooms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSpraying\/Pests\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e You may see whiteflies on your gardenias from time to time.

(If you're planting your shrubs in containers, this places their roots above ground level where they will not be insulated by the surrounding soil, so they'll overwinter in their pots to Zone 6.) A full-sun location (at least 6, but preferably 8 hours of sun each day) promotes fuller foliage growth and more flowers. Double Knock Out Roses aren't too fussy about the type of soil they grow in, but they do need a well-draining site. If the roots sit in soggy soil, they may rot. Before excavating planting holes, have a locate service mark the ground above any underground utility lines so you don't sever them when you dig.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePreparing the Site\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Loosen the soil on-site by digging or tilling to a depth of 6 inches.

The hole should be only as deep as the root ball but several times as wide. Gently remove your plant from its container and place it in the planting hole, checking its depth to make sure it won't be planted deeper in the ground than it was in its container. Backfill the hole with the soil you removed when digging without adding potting mix, fertilizer or any soil amendments to the planting hole. Instead, give your roses a head start by adding an organic bio-stimulant, like the \u003cb\u003eBrighter Blooms Root Rocket\u003c\/b\u003e.

This will help conserve moisture and keep the weeds at a minimum.

In the absence of sufficient rainfall (1 inch per week), hand-watering at the base of each plant or drip irrigation, such as soaker hoses, is optimal for Double Knock Out Roses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSpacing\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Roses are healthier when there's good air circulation around each plant.

It is a time-intensive task that's necessary to maintain many types of roses. But Double Knock Out Roses continue to produce new flowers without needing to be deadheaded. You can leave your shrubs unpruned throughout their growing season, and they'll continue blooming. However, a few snips here and there during the dormant season will help keep them looking neat and maximize their flowering potential.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhy Prune?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • Double Knock Out Roses naturally grow 3 to 4 feet tall, but if they're never pruned they may grow slightly taller and begin to lose their tidy look.\u003cbr\u003e • As some branches grow, they may begin to grow inward or cross other canes, instead of growing outward, which is healthier and aesthetically more desirable.\u003cbr\u003e • Shrubs may grow thickly, reducing air circulation around the canes and increasing susceptibility to disease.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhen to Prune\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We'll ship your plants perfectly pruned and shaped, so you won't have to do any trimming until the second or third year after planting. As the buds begin to break their dormancy, usually in February or March, they'll start to swell before the new growth appears. When you notice this, it's the perfect time to do any pruning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhere to Prune\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Find a bud that faces outward a small red sprout and makes a 45-degree cut one-half inch above the bud, with your cut slanting outward in the same direction and angle as the bud.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eHow to Prune\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • Remove any branches that cross other branches, or grow inward towards the center\u003cbr\u003e • Remove one-third of the older canes each year.\u003cbr\u003e • If you want to reduce the height of your shrubs, prune all the canes to 24 inches.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSpraying\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Because of Double Knock Out Rose's pest- and disease-resistance, you may never have to spray your plants. But if you see aphids or other insect pests in large numbers on your plants, spray insecticidal soap as an organic pesticide, following label directions. If a fungal problem presents itself, such as black spot or downy mildew, use a fungicide labeled for use on roses. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWinter Care\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When your Double Knock Out Roses drop their leaves in autumn, rake and remove all the fallen leaves, flowers and twigs. This prevents any unnecessary issues from occurring. Replace the old mulch with fresh mulch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eHow to Cut Double Knock Out Roses for Floral Arrangements\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • Take a bucket of warm water with you. \u003cbr\u003e • Select flowers that have just started to open; tight buds may not open completely and fully opened blooms won't last as long. \u003cbr\u003e • Cut the stems with a sharp knife at a 45-degree angle, and immediately plunge them into the water. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eHow to Extend the Vase Life of Cut Roses\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • Strip the bottoms of stems to remove leaves that are in the water to keep the water cleaner.\u003cbr\u003e • Change the water daily to keep it fresh.\u003cbr\u003e • Dissolve a package of floral preservative into the water in your vase or make a homemade version: Stir 1 pint of a lemon-line soda (non-diet) into 1 pint of water. Add ½ teaspoon of household bleach and mix thoroughly. Use this solution instead of water when you fill your vase.\u003cbr\u003e • Store your cut roses away from bowls of fruit, because the ethylene gas that ripening fruit produces will cause the flowers to age more quickly. Although a bowl of red apples beside a vase filled with red roses may dress up your kitchen table, the apples will cause the roses to droop and drop their petals prematurely.","brand":"BrighterBlooms.com","offers":[{"title":"4 inch pot","offer_id":13669320458301,"sku":"15574","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 Gallon","offer_id":13669320491069,"sku":"13502","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 Gallon","offer_id":13669320556605,"sku":"12679","price":52.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 Gallon","offer_id":13669320589373,"sku":"13504","price":73.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 Gallon","offer_id":45106003378350,"sku":"17856","price":91.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"7 Gallon","offer_id":46227609354414,"sku":"19656","price":119.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0062\/8532\/8445\/products\/Red_knockout_rose_BB_600x600_311b8812-d4eb-41ce-8b37-f7c50aff357b.jpg?v=1601473731"},{"product_id":"wintergreen-boxwood","title":"Wintergreen Boxwood Shrub","description":"\u003ch2\u003eResists Boxwood Blight- Extremely Disease Resistant\u003c\/h2\u003e\n• Very Easy to Grow- Low Maintenance and Disease Resistant\u003cbr\u003e • Compact and Dense Boxwoods Keep their Shape\u003cbr\u003e • Extremely Adaptable- They Grow Almost Anywhere!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePopular with Landscape Architects Because they Don't Need Constant Care\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The tough and robust Wintergreen Boxwood (also known as the Korean Boxwood) is an extremely adaptable shrub that makes a fashionable addition to any landscape.
