I hate it when you pull open what looks like one plant and there are two or three crammed in there. My gardenia standard is actually TWO plants in a three gallon pot, stripped bare from the roots to about four feet up, staked, and then trimmed into a ball. Not sure it's even worth bothering with, but I'm attempting to let it grow out into a proper bush.
