The difference between small-leaf gardenia and large-leaf gardeniaLarge-leaf gardenia can grow to more than 2 meters in height, with relatively large, oblong leaves, obvious leaf stems, and large, double-petaled flowers. Small-leaf gardenia is about 10-20 centimeters in height, with small and narrow leaves, and creeping branches that grow horizontally. It has more flowers, but the flowers and leaves are very small. In the picture below, the one on the left is the large-leaf gardenia, and the one on the right is the small-leaf gardenia. It is obvious that the two types of gardenias differ in leaf size, shape, and flower shape. The difference in fragrance between small-leaf gardenia and large-leaf gardeniaIn terms of fragrance, small-leaf gardenia is not as strong as large-leaf gardenia, and has a slightly creamy scent. Flower lovers can also distinguish large-leaf gardenia from small-leaf gardenia by smelling the fragrance when purchasing. The difference in survival rate between small-leaf gardenia and large-leaf gardeniaAlthough the small-leaf gardenia is smaller, it is easier to survive than the large-leaf gardenia. Especially when propagating by cuttings, the survival rate of small-leaf gardenia is much higher than that of large-leaf gardenia. The difference in growing conditions between small-leaf gardenia and large-leaf gardeniaLarge-leaf gardenia is suitable for ground planting, is more cold-resistant, blooms earlier, and has strong adaptability; small-leaf gardenia can be grown in small pots, is not cold-resistant, has a longer flowering period, and has higher requirements for environmental conditions. In the picture below, on the left is the large-leaf gardenia in the field, and on the right is the small-leaf gardenia in the field. You can clearly see the difference in leaf shape between the two. I hope that through the popularization of our little knowledge about gardenia, everyone can distinguish clearly when buying and cultivating~~ |
