Gardenia

First gardenia this year! I cut this one and brought it in so that I could savor its scent.

I love the way these smell too. I had a bouquet of them for my wedding.

Gardenias! I miss them -- we used to have them when we lived in the city, but we get too cold here to grow them. Love their scent -- reminds me of my grandmother's garden; she had a whole row of gardenia plants along her walkway, and I remember just standing there and breathing in the spicy smell.

I associate the smell with my grandmother. She had them everywhere on her property in GA.

Love the smell of gardenias! I like the single flower in the bowl.

This flower is beautiful, and the whole picture is just lovely. I like the color of the bowl, the sight of the water inside it, the wooden surface... just a great combination of pieces that makes a wonderful picture.
