Gardenia is a Pokémon Gym Leader from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. She is well-liked with fans, though not too many fanworks exist which primarily focus on her. She also makes appearances in Pokémon Masters, PokéAni and Pokéspe.
The Pokémon Gardenia is most associated with are Roserade, Cherubi and Turtwig.
She is not to be confused for Nanu, another Pokémon character, since Nanu's Japanese name Kuchinashi means gardenia. It's for this reason that their ship is called GardeniaShipping[1] in English-speaking Pokémon fandom.
