There are plenty of reasons to love Gardenias. Last week, however, I discovered yet another. Only after I shlepped the Gardenia and a few other potted plants from outside into my bedroom in order to ward-off both death by frost and destruction from my cats (who are not allowed into my bedroom), did I realize the cute little sign that explained the sturdiness of this flowered-plant species.
I was somewhat miffed at the time because this pot, in particular, deposited a large amount of dirt in my living room as I hauled it through the house. I am able to now, after a week, appreciate the bright side: I'll have one less living thing to worry about when the next freeze bears down on us.
