Care Guide
Gardenia BushSouth China & Japan
Plant Care
Thrives in bright light to part sun conditions, preferably morning direct sun and afternoon shade. Not suited for low light areas.
Water every 1 week, allowing the top few inches of soil to dry out between waterings if planted in a container. Provide one inch of water per week if planted directly in the ground. This plant will benefit from higher humidity.
