Native Gardenia 🌼

 An evergreen rainforest tree with attractive glossy foliage and highly perfumed, small, white, tubular flowers. They also produce a large, edible, yellow fruit which turns brown and soft when ripe. The smooth flesh around the seed can be sucked, it is sweet like dates but has a bitter aftertaste. The flesh under the skin is similar with a gritty texture. Ideal in large tubs as a shade tree, or somewhere the delightful scent of the flowers can be enjoyed #daleysfruit #daleysnursery #gardenia #native
