Angel of the Night (Randia ruiziana)

One of the sweetest, most intoxicatingly fragrant flowers we have ever found, the white 8” long, tubular flowers have a 5-pointed petal that naturally bends but when unfolded reaches 5-6” across. The fragrance is very long-lasting. We picked a flower and dried it on a piece of paper. The next morning, after the flower had been discarded, the fragrance lasted for days on the paper. Another bonus: this winter bloomer will flower for two months or more. To bring Randia into bloom you must allow the flower buds to form in late summer and early fall on the old wood; therefore, only prune once flowering is complete. This South American native has an open branching habit and can be grown under moderate light.

African Gardenia (Mitriostigma axillare)

A fragrant everbloomer that’s easy to get along with. Gardenias are known for their temperamental loveliness, but this hard-to-find Gardenia cousin is filled with sweetness. Its enduring nature and adaptability to indoor conditions make it the perfect specimen for houseplant gardeners. The flowers are quite simple, five white petals surround a yellow center. They are always present in dense clusters somewhere on the plant.
