How to grow gardenia at home

1. Breeding environment

①Soil: Gardenia prefers loose, fertile, breathable and easy-draining slightly acidic soil. It can be made by mixing leaf mold, peat soil and garden soil.

② Temperature: It prefers warm growing conditions. It is best to provide it with 20-28℃ breeding conditions in spring and summer. When the temperature is high in summer, you can spray water mist to cool it down. When the temperature is too low in winter, warming measures need to be taken.

③Light: It needs sufficient light to grow normally. Except for the summer when the light is too strong and needs shade, it can be given full sunlight in other seasons.

④Water: It prefers moist growing conditions. If the soil is too dry, it is likely to develop poorly. Always monitor the soil condition and water before it dries out.

2. Acidic soil

It needs to be cultivated in slightly acidic soil, otherwise it will be difficult to grow normally. If the soil does not meet the standards, you can add a few drops of salt-free vinegar when watering. This will effectively lower the pH value of the soil and provide the plants with a suitable growth environment.

3. Timely pruning

It has a strong germination ability, so you need to pay attention to it and cut off any long branches immediately if you find them, so as not to affect the flowering and ornamental value of the plant. In addition, if diseased branches are found, they should be cut off in time to avoid infection.
