Un Piccolo Giardino nella Città - Gardenias II

Two Gardenias
Yes I know I'm carrying on like a high-school girl on Prom Night who gets a gardenia corsage but I've never had one before! A gardenia I mean, or for that matter a corsage. I am just so proud of my little white beauty - like I really done much other than water it faithfully. I'd still like to know what is causing the leaves to yellow?

Un Piccolo Giardino nella Città - Gardenias

Gardenia bloosomThe smallest bud on the Gardenia bloomed last evening and this morning was out in all its simple glory. I've never had one before - Ottawa wasn't exactly the climate - and they really are beautiful.Gardenia budThere are six other buds in various stages of blossoming and it appears a few more will form. I think gardenia and I see Billie Holliday. Maybe that will give me an excuse to play something by her for Mercoledi Musicale - as if one needs an excuse.
