The phytochemical study of the underground parts of Gardenia jasminoides var. radicans Makino (Rubiaceae) led to the isolation of five coumarins. On the basis of spectroscopic evidences, the structures of these compounds were charaterized as ferulic acid(l), 5,8-di-(3-methyl-2,3-dihydroxybutyloxylpsoralen)(2), skimmin(3), uracil(4), $3-0-{\alpha}-D-glucopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}4)-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyloxypeucedanin$ hydrates(5), respectively.
