Umar, these are such beauties, you never told us that you are growing a variegated Gardenia, how beautiful that plant is... have you tried to root its cuttings?

These Cannas are Tropicanna series from Takii?? Which variety the petunias are?

Chiltern seeds have a fragrant chandni in their catalog. Not sure how much time it would take to flower from seed.
