How many times does gardenia bloom in a year? Is gardenia evergreen?

1. How many times a year does it bloom?

Ordinary gardenias grown at home generally only bloom once a year, and rarely bloom twice. In most cases, the flowers will not bloom again this year after withering. However, if the surrounding environment is suitable for growth and maintenance and management are proper, it may bloom a second time, but this situation is rare. Differences in varieties will also affect the number of flowering times. Four-season gardenia can bloom twice a year, while large-leaf gardenia can generally only bloom once a year. Now, through greenhouse technology, multiple flowering can be achieved, which is difficult to do in ordinary families.

2. Flowering time

Gardenia has a long flowering period, and it may bloom from March to August. The flowering time varies and is not uniform and fixed. After flowering, the flowering time of a single flower can last for about 3-5 days, and the flowering time of the whole plant can last for one month.

3. Is it evergreen?

Gardenia is an evergreen shrub or small tree, so it can remain evergreen all year round. Its leaves will not turn yellow or fall off in autumn and winter. It has a relatively high ornamental value and can be grown at home. If the leaves turn yellow, there may be a problem with metabolism or maintenance methods.
