Crochet Gardenia Rose Meanings & Usage

Gardenia Roses, a charming hybrid in the world of flowers, combine the symbolism of both gardenias and roses. They represent purity, secret love, and joy, making them perfect for expressing deep, often unspoken emotions. In Victorian times, giving someone a gardenia meant you were telling them, You're lovely, while roses have long symbolized love and passion.

Historically, gardenias were discovered in China and named after Dr. Alexander Garden, an 18th-century botanist. Combining this with the rich history of roses creates a flower with a fascinating backstory. I once gave a potted Gardenia Rose to my mentor as a thank-you gift, symbolizing both my gratitude and the blossoming of my career under her guidance.

These beautiful flowers are ideal for romantic gestures, celebrations of new beginnings, or as a thoughtful gift for someone going through a challenging time. Their unique beauty and rich symbolism make Gardenia Roses a truly special choice for any occasion where you want to express deep, heartfelt emotions.

 

Details of Gardenia Rose Crochet Pattern

This Gardenia Rose crochet pattern is suitable for intermediate crocheters who are comfortable with various stitches and shaping techniques. The project involves creating three small petals, four large petals, a detailed flower base, and three realistic leaves, making it a satisfying challenge.

The process includes crocheting the petals separately, creating a flower base with five petal-like structures, and crafting wire-reinforced leaves. This combination allows for a realistic, multi-layered flower appearance.

In nature, Gardenia Roses are typically white or cream-colored, symbolizing purity and secret love. Interestingly, they're a hybrid creation, combining the beauty of gardenias and roses.

This pattern is highly customizable. You can experiment with different yarn colors to create roses in various shades, from classic white to bold pinks or yellows. Adjust the number of petals or leaves to create larger or smaller flowers. You might even add a touch of sparkle with metallic thread for special occasions.

A single finished Gardenia Rose measures approximately 3 inches (7.6 cm) in diameter and 2 inches (5 cm) in height, including the base. For a bouquet, you can create multiple roses. A small bouquet of 3-5 roses would measure about 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) in diameter, making it a perfect decorative piece or a charming handmade gift.

Crochet Gardenia Rose Pattern

How to Crochet Small Petals (Make 3)

Round 1

Round 1: Start with a magic ring. Chain 2 (counts as first double crochet), then work 14 double crochets into the ring. Slip stitch to join. Chain 2.

Round 2

Round 2: Work 14 double crochet increases (2 dc in each stitch around). Slip stitch to join. Chain 1.

Round 3

Round 3: Work 7 single crochets. Then, repeat (single crochet, chain 2, single crochet) 14 times. This creates the scalloped edge. Finish with 7 more single crochets. Slip stitch to join.

Tips: When crocheting multiple petals, maintain consistent tension across all petals for uniform size and shape. Remember, these small petals form the inner part of your Gardenia Rose, so their neat execution will contribute significantly to the overall appearance of your finished flower.

How to Crochet Large Petals (Make 4)

Round 1

Round 1: Begin with a magic ring. Chain 2 (counts as first double crochet), then work 14 double crochets into the ring. Slip stitch to join. Chain 2.

Round 2

Round 2: Work 14 double crochet increases (2 dc in each stitch around). Slip stitch to join. Chain 2.

Round 3

Round 3: Work 7 half double crochets. Then, repeat (half double crochet, chain 2, half double crochet) 14 times. This creates the scalloped edge. Finish with 7 more half double crochets. Slip stitch to join.

Tips: Ensure your magic ring is tight to avoid a hole in the center of your petal. When crocheting multiple petals, maintain consistent tension across all petals for uniform size and shape.

How to Crochet Flower Base (Make 1)

Round 1

Round 1: Start with a magic ring. Chain 2 (counts as first double crochet), then work 14 double crochets into the ring. Slip stitch to join. (15 double crochets total)

Round 2

Round 2: Chain 6. Slip stitch in the 2nd chain from the hook. Single crochet in the next chain. Half double crochet in the next chain. Work 2 double crochets in the last two chains. Skip 2 stitches on the base ring, slip stitch into the next stitch.

Repeat 5 times total.

Tips: In Round 2, the chain-6 sequences create petal-like structures. Keep your tension consistent for uniform petals. Remember to leave a long enough tail when finishing to use for attaching the base to your flower during assembly.

How to Crochet Leaves (Make 3)

Step 1

Step 1: Chain 11. Add wire along the chain for support.

Step 2: Starting from the 2nd chain from the hook, work 1 single crochet, 1 half double crochet, 6 double crochets, 1 half double crochet.

Step 3: Work 3 single crochets in the next stitch (this forms the leaf tip).

Step 4

Step 4: Work 1 half double crochet, 6 double crochets, 1 half double crochet, 1 single crochet.

Step 5: Finish with a slip stitch.

Tips

Tips: When adding the wire, ensure it's securely placed but not too tight, allowing for shaping later. The 3 single crochets in one stitch create the leaf's point - make these slightly tight for a crisp tip. Crochet the leaves tightly to prevent the wire from showing through. For the last stitch, consider wrapping the yarn around the wire a couple of extra times to conceal it completely.

 

Crochet Gardenia Rose Assemble

Step 1

Step 1: Glue small petals to bent stem wire, arranging evenly.

Step 2

Step 2: Add large petals, overlapping. Insert stem through flower base, glue. Attach base leaves.

Step 3

Step 3: Wrap stem with thread. Add leaf bundle. Finish wrapping, glue, trim excess.

Note: Use fabric glue. Adjust for natural look.

    Notes

    Crochet Tips:

    1. When crocheting petals, the same force should be applied during the crocheting process of the same petals, so that the crocheted petals will be of the same size

    2. Crocheting leaves needs to be tighter, so that the wire will not be exposed and it will be more beautiful

    3. When crocheting the last stitch of the leaves, you can wrap it around the wire twice more to avoid exposing the wire

    4. When crocheting the receptacle, after crocheting the last stitch, hide the thread ends and cut off the excess thread ends.

    Assembly Tips:

    Use fabric glue. Adjust for natural look.
