After cutting, clean up the leaves below and keep no more than 2-3 leaves to avoid wasting too much nutrients. Gardenia cutting timeThe most suitable time for gardenia cuttings is generally around June, August and October. However, for novices, the air humidity and ambient temperature change greatly in these months and are difficult to control.

Generally speaking, the temperature suitable for gardenia growth is between 20 degrees Celsius and 35 degrees Celsius, and the higher the temperature, the higher the survival rate of the cuttings.
