This is the Gardenia which grows wild in India. It is found in all dry districts and deciduous forests in the South-West and from Madras up through the Dec can to Chittagong and into Burma. It is a handsome shrub, sometimes a small tree, lighter in both form and colour than the garden Gardenia. The flaking bark is paler, greenish-grey in colour and the leaves are a bright, clear green. They, also, exude a substance which gives them a varnished look.
