Gardenia
One word. “WOW!!!” Thats pretty much what you hear wherever you go with Gardenia. This guy has it ALL. We are proud to introduce- Gardenia. This incredibly handsome GHRA registered traditional black and white piebald, is very possibly the best quality Gypsy Vanner gelding on the market today. From his long flowing mane that falls well below his knees, his heavy feathering, gorgeous topline, to his tail that drags the ground, his striking coat, and his sparkling blue eyes, you will not find a better looking or more quality Gypsy Vanner anywhere around. Gardenia looks like he has trotted right out of a fairytale. He has the biggest personality ever. He absolutely eats up any and all attention. He’s quite the diva. He really needs to be a movie star somewhere!
He stands 14.2hh and is 10 years old. He stands well for grooming, tacking up, mounting, etc. Out on the trails, he rides really slow and quiet. His favorite speed is a walk. He’s not spooky. He’s extremely laid back and chilled out. He’s been ridden by beginners and inexperienced riders on long group trail rides. He does well in the middle, as the lead horse, or bringing up the rear. He crosses logs, climbs up and down steep and slippery banks, through the creeks and rivers, and even has been through some rough terrain, no problem! He is a beautiful mover, knows his leads, moves off leg, has a big stop and easy reverse. He will collect and lope around beautifully. If you prefer not to ride, Gardenia also drives! He’s been used for some ranch work, roping slow steers and checking and moving cows. We believe even fairytale Prince Charming horses should be versatile!
He’s been on overnight trail ride camping trips, he’s had show experience and has also been used as a leadline kids horse at church events, and parades- complete with loud wailing sirens, crowds of people, candy hurling through the air and flashing crazy Christmas lights. In short, Gardenia has quite the resume, and he’s capable of lots! Gypsy Vanners are known for being big puppy dogs, and he definitely fits the narrative. He goes without say, we want the best home for him, and the right fit. Contact for more about him
