Transplanting Gardenias from Pots: Variety Determines Hardiness

‘Veitchii’ (florist gardenia) needs winter protection indoors. ‘August Beauty’, ‘Mystery’, ‘Radicans’ survive outdoors in pots near north/east walls. The latter three also thrive in-ground. ‘Pinwheel’ and ‘Kleim’s Hardy’ are even more cold-tolerant.
