The gardenia is a tender evergreen shrub with amazingly fragrant flowers and shiny, dark-green leaves. A native of the tropics, it tends to need a bit of extra care to grow its best. It is also used as an antioxidant, to reduce swelling, and to improve the immune system. Gardenia is applied to the skin for bleeding, wound healing, sprains, and muscle soreness. In food, gardenia is used as a yellow food colorant.
