Can I grow Gardenia in the UK?

Brighton, United Kingdom

I'm in the south of England and I've always loved the smell of Gardenia. Whilst I don't think it's readily grown/sold here due to our temperatures, do you think there is the possibility it could grow if I plant a few seeds and keep them indoors?

Lynnwood, WA

While Gardenias are historically tender, there has been a lot of work done to produce hardy gardenias in the past decade. Some of the Gardenias that we use in the Pacific Northwest are the following Kleim’s Hardy’, ‘Frost Proof’, and ‘Chuck Hayes’. ... I have a number of clients growing gardenias successfully in the Seattle area

Good luck
