#ProPlantTips for Care:
Everblooming Gardenia Bushes do their best blooming in the full sun but can tolerate partial shade in the hottest climates of their growing zones. Partial sun in cooler growing zones may give you fewer blossoms. Provide mulch and moderate, yet consistent moisture and regular fertilization to keep those blooms returning.
- Full Sun & Partial Sun
- Slightly Acidic, Rich & Fertile Well-Drained Soil
- Gardenia Plants are Easy Care & Low Maintenance
- Provide a Regular Fertilizing Schedule
