- What do I do to make gardenia plant to produce more buds and bloom all year long? I answer this question in this video. Hope it helps you to make your gardenia plant to produce more buds and blooms.
Thank you for making a straightforward video, easy to take your info and put it into action!!
You're most welcome 🙂
Thank you, thank you! Gardenias are my absolute favorite flower... So I am very grateful for your help. I'm treating myself to a new Gardenia plant & will use your tips. Also going to propagate this time.
I am glad it helped. One of my favourite plant too. Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for such an awesome video. Welcome to another day in our universal playground. My brother. Warmly, Michael.
Thank you brother.
Thanks so much for this valuable information on gardenias!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, I was a bit sceptical about this plant... being a first-time owner, I'm more confident now cause we have the weather patten😊
Glad the video helped you. Do let me if you face any problem with this plant.
I have huge bushes loaded of buds and blooms and my yard and home smells wonderful!! 🌺🌸🌼🌹🌻
Yes true, they are so beautiful and smell wonderful.
Does it bloom the whole year?
@@jarinsubah7006 Yes, it blooms all year round in tropical region
Thank you for sharing
Nice info and nicely explained
Thank you!
Your gardenias are severely chlorotic from iron deficiency.... Bud drop most of the time is caused by temperatures, they need a cool night time temperature after a mild daytime temp. Scorching temps = bud drop. Hot night temps = bud drop
I pray you're right because I've got a pair of Gardenias that are really well established and have dozens of buds on them of which like 5 or 6 will actually open up. And yeah, mine get full sun all day I didn't know they needed lower temps during day and night. Gonna give that a try, really hope it works out. Thank you for the advice.
Thank you I just planted two gardenias in two pots on my porch. Your information was very helpful.
Glad it was helpful! More great tips are on the way, stay tuned.

Thank you for the video. Very informative. This will help me.
You're most welcome. Glad it helped 🙂🙏
Very nice...Tham you for these valuable tips👍👍
You're welcome. Keep watching.
I've lived in South Carolina and Florida and gardenias do exceptionally well there with very little care.
That's really great. What other South East Asian plant that thrives there?
@@PlantZone Many of the plants you have, thrive in Central and South Florida, unless we get a hard freeze. I lost some beautiful paint brush crotons one year.
@@PlantZonekudzoo 😆
@@Trifln214Yep. We have plenty of that!😄😉
Nice 👍
Thank you so much! Do the coffee grounds have to be spent?
I've have had my gardenia plant for 1/2 year but it hasn't bloom. There was one bud when the plant first arrived but it dropped soon after. I will give the coffee grounds method a try and organic fertilizer if I have too. Its very interesting as many western based websites (usually Souther parts of USA) have advised that gardenia buds cannot survive above 21 Celsius so I was thinking that the Malaysian tropical temperature was the culprit in my no bloom situation.
This plant needs plenty of direct sunlight with warm surroundings to flower and not too much moisture in the air. Together with this climate give NPK 15-15-15 fertilizer. It will definitely produce buds and bloom.
Hi !
First check the general health of the plant. Healthy Gardenias will have shiny and intensely light to middle green colored leaves. Dark green and dull leaves are often the result of nutrient deficiencys. Use a powerfull slow release fertilizer (Osmocote) as mentioned above, that contains macro and all micronutrientes as well. Gardênia needs a constant flow of nutrients to grow healthily, especially when growing them in pots. Biological fertilization is fine, but not sufficient to support this plant with nutrients in long terms. In my opinion, the biological does not replace the chemical fertilization. It's just an extra.
Greetings from the northeast coast of Brazil !
Mine bloom all year round. I use organic fertilizer, twice a year
I tried growing gardenia in a pot because the smell drives me crazy. However, the buds would sprout, get big and then fall off without ever blooming. Our gardener never understood "why", but I'm sure he never tried coffee grounds or rabbit manure. I'll let him know so that he may do a better job next time!
Hi, sure...let me know how's it turn out. Thank you.
Yeah that’s been happening to me too I finally have blooms on there that seem pretty healthy you can normally tell when they’re gonna fall off if there’s a little brown marks underneath the bud but I’m keeping my fingers crossed. I do notice that they do like early morning sun and I make sure that I pick all the yellow leaves off and to try to water them the same consistency not too much and not too little which is hard to do due to rain factors.
Might also some calcium/magnesium deficiency.
I have the exact same problem. I've got really well established Gardenias that have dozens of buds on them of which maybe 6 will open. It's so frustrating.
Very good video. It is much appreciated. I live is SW Florida and so far have had good luck with my gardenia. Now I want to try propagating it. Any suggestions?
Thank you so much. If the stem cutting method didn't work, you can try air laying method. It works too.
i tried putting cuttings in a large ziploc bag filled with wet sphagnum moss. give a small opening for circulation but keep the moss wet and after 2 months the roots are strong enough to tolerate wet soil if you tend to overwater. my cuttings are growing well!
Love the smell
Yes, love the fragrant. ❤️🌼
New growth is occurring all over the bush. When will I be able to tell the difference between a regular growth and a bud?
Can you do a video in growing gardeniaindoors in our country? Thank you

How can I help plant to grow buds on all new growth instead of a few branches?
They are very fragrant.
Yes they are very fragrant.
Hello I love gardenia so much I bought 2 but looks they are not happy I put them in the garden front of the terrace,, repot them both but still not happy plants ..and today I bought another one ..they are expensive here in Sydney which is winter this time
Hi. Sorry to hear that. Gardenias are native to eastern Asia. They are warm-climate plants. They do best in a warm and mild, humid climate. As such I don't think they will do well in frost areas of Sydney, especially during winter. Try to find a warm spot until the winter is over. I think eventually they will do well during warm months later. Don't give up. I think it's the climate affecting the plant.
Tamsak done new friend
Thanks for coming
How about tea bags?
Is it as good as coffee waste?
I received one in February for my birthday. I put it in a pot outside once the weather changed. Nothing. Just green leaves which are healthy and full. I've read they are fickle plants 🤷🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️. Guess I need to get try liquid fertilizer and coffee grounds. I'm in 7a region.
Hi. Try pruning the plant put the plant in direct sunlight and give npk 15-15-15 fertilizer if you are ok with chemical fertilizer if not you can try chicken manure.
@@PlantZone thank you for responding. I'll try that this week.
Haii is it i should put Gardenia outside to direct sunglight? Is it good for it to flower? I stay around Kuala Lumpur. But mine gardenia not flowering tho😂
super
Thank you.

I have gardenia plants however, the leaves are turning yellow and the buds are not blooming since last winter.. should I trimmed those off? Do I need to prune them once a year? I am a newbie to the plants... help!
Hi Amy, I have no experience growing this in winter. But pruning is not necessary, pruning is to only keep the plant in shape. Try not to prune the plant when it sprouting new leaves because gardenia blooms in new growth. Best time is to prune after the bloom.
mine blooms, but drops after about a day after they open. soil is very alkaline. im told epsom salt helps but is only considered a boost?
Hi, yes epsom salt helps improve flower blooming and plants grow bushier. But I am not sure, why the flower drop very fast.
I just watched your video my gardenia looks healthy apparently but all buds drop every single time they are about to bloom what can I do?
Hi Rosalinda, many factors can affect the falling of gardenia buds like low humidity, over-watering or under watering, poor soil drainage, not enough sunlight or fluctuating temperatures, not enough nutrients or too much fertilizer. You need to look at all these things and adjust what's necessary. Any of this could be the reason.
Hello! Thank you for your video. Can I use dish washing soap spray on plants to kill bugs?
Hi Nora, yes you can.
I live in south India where the climate is hot now.
I purchased the plant last year.i have put it in a pot. Till now I got only 2 flowers. The plant does not produce leaves n buds. I tried all the methods..adding banana skin peals, onion peals, tea, coffee powders, rice dal water etc.
Pl give me more suggestions. It is my favorite flower. I want to have lots of flowers on the plant
I prefer organic way but when its not working you can always try any NPK 15-15-15 chemical fertilizer such as Nitrophoska Green 15 15 15 +2S from Behn Meyer.
Good morning. My Gardenia plant is not producing even leaves. Please help me. I will be highly obliged to you for this. Thanks.
Good day, you can try repot it to new soil, it will help.
@@PlantZone thank you very much for your reply. I will follow your instructions. Once again thank you very much for your help.
Sir please give me good suggestions for growing plant it is in Jameen direct in soil
You can plant gardenia direct in soil but what is Jameen?
Good day….i just wanna ask how long does it takes to get cuttings to bloom. Thanks
Depends to your cutting. I usually cut stems that already have buds, so it will continue to bloom even during rooting period. After rooting, and flowering, the stem will continue to produce new buds and blooms, so best to take softwood cuttings where it has been flowering. If you take a long cutting and separate into few cuttings, the middle cuttings will take longer time to produce buds, usually about 2 months and also depending to fertilizer too.
Thank you for replying…. I’m just being excited to see my new plants blooming
My gardenia has been in the ground for 2 years and it hasn't started forming buds. I try to lower the ph level of the soil even then. Please guide.
Hi, this plant does not tolerate extreme temperature either too hot or too cold. The daytime sunlight and nighttime temperature must be similar to tropical or subtropical country. It is possible your daytime or nighttime temperatures are at extremes affecting bud formation. On the other hand, it could be due to lack of nutrition in soil. Try using fertilizer that contains higher percentage of phosphorous such as npk 5-30-5 (chemical fertilizer) or chicken manure (organic fertilizer). Give a little about around the edges of pot if you are growing in pot, if on ground, pour it around about 2 feet away from the center trunk of the tree. 3 weeks once. It could be any reasons. Try talking to local growers how they are growing in your area. Hope this helps.
@@PlantZone thank you so much for a detailed reply 🙂
my new subscirbers
Thank you.
Wonderful, you have such a beautiful gardenia tree. Please advise what is wrong with plant when leave are light green but the leaf veins are dark green. How to repair? Thx.
Hi. It could be due to any reason such as over or under watering, too low light or not enough sunlight etc. However, generally if leaves of plants are light green but the leaf veins are dark green this could be due lack of iron mineral in the soil for the plant to take and produce sufficient amounts of chlorophyll to make the leaves darker green. Try giving any well-balanced fertilizer with chelated iron in it. You should be able to see new darker green leaves. Remember the old leaves will not change, but the new one should be green. Follow the instruction on label on how to use the fertilizer.
@@PlantZone thank you. So glad to learn so much from your vast knowledge🙏
@@PlantZone Hi, just curious, do you live in highlands like Cameron/Fraser? Because the cooler climate will affect gardenia differrently compared to kl city. Thx
Yes different level does affect plants differently. This is mostly due to temperature and humidity. The gardenias in the video are in Puchong and they are about 2 meters tall now. I live in Puchong Selangor. Cameron Highland is our hometown.
@@PlantZone 👍👍🙏
Will neem oil keep the white flies and mealybugs away if I start spraying from the first planting
No. It does help but you need to monitor and ensure thy are completely removed. Best to wash the plant and quarantine it and monitor it.
One of the most issues in growing Gardênia healthy, is a lack of nutrients, that is a fertile ground to attract pests. Make sure to keep the plant in healthy conditions, so pests will automatically stay away.
I've been pampering my indoor gardenia, and put it outdoors 3 weeks ago. It has had a big fat bud for 10 WEEKS!! Why doesn't it blossom??? It has lot of new leaves, I use the correct fertilizer. I'm going crazy, I have spent so much time coddling this plant for 3 years now. I will try using coffee grounds, but find this very frustrating. I live on Cape Cod.
I live in Baytown, Tx. Overnight my plant turned brown. Help
Any idea what NPK value?
I have tried 15-15-15 fertilizer before, it works. You can try it. However, I have moved to be organic. I have also used coffee grounds I collected from a café nearby and feed the tree monthly but I found it does not really make a lot of difference. I now only use rabbit manure and chicken manure biweekly to give the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Additionally all my gardenias are under direct sunlight, from the time sun rises to the time sunsets. They are doing great.
planted gardenia 1 yr ago, buds are not growing and falling off.. what should i do??
Hi. Many factors can affect the falling of gardenia buds like low humidity, over-watering or under watering, poor soil drainage, not enough sunlight or fluctuating temperatures, not enough nutrients or too much fertilizer. You need to look at all these things and adjust what's necessary. Any of this could be the reason.
Give it more time and make sure it’s getting enough water
Fertilizer can help it bloom to geo one made for gardenia
Dear Sir, l have planted Gardenia in land around 1.5 year back and is around 2 ft tall with good growth. It produces lot of buds but they do not bloom. I use only cow dung compost as fertilizer. There is no bud drop or insect infection.What can be done for blooming ?
Hi, does the gardenia buds turn brown and fall off? Can be two reason:
Too much shade causes poor flowering and flowers that brown and drop off prematurely.
Pests - Mites are a common source of gardenia flower bud problems. Bud mites cause the tips of the buds to turn brown, and the buds fall off before they bloom.
@@PlantZone Sir, there is no bud drop. Also the buds remain green only but do not open and bloom. They do not turn brown. I can not see any insect attack. The plant gets full sun light 8 hrs a day as it is in an open plot of land. I am unable to know the cause. To experiment I plucked one fully grown bud and kept with only stem dipped in water but it does not open like hibiscus after a day.
I see, does the buds get bigger?
@@PlantZone yes, it grows to bigger size.
Hi Mukund, good to hear that your gardenia has finally blooming 😀. Thank you for updating. Good day.
Casuarina tree video plz 🇧🇩❤️
I love the gardenia plant it smells heavenlybut the flowers turn brown very quickly why is that
My flowers usually start to turn yellow after 6-7 days. It will turn to light yellow and will remain yellow for few more days and eventually turn to brown and die away. This entire process from bloom to end seems to be 14 days cycle. If this is the duration, it's normal. But if it is just after 2-3 days, then yes, there is something wrong. This usually happens if the flower has been infested with pests or it could be due to humidity. Sometimes when the sun is too hot, it will make the flower dry too quickly and die. Else it could be due to too much moisture in the flower, which can also kill the flower quickly. If you are in a climate zone and the night time temperature drops too cold it will make the flower wet and with water droplets on it, too much moisture can also cause the flower to turn yellow too quickly. It could be any reason. Need to look at all the angles. Sometimes, it could also be due to too many chemical fertilizers. The best remedy for growing any flowering plant successfully and to its fullest potential is by providing it the native climate from where the plant originated. In this case, mimicking tropical climate both day and night. The right, soil condition, sun, moisture, etc all play a role in how healthy the plant is and how long the flowers bloom.
When is the best time to move this plant?
How much age of this plant
My gardenia blooms in London for 5/6 of the year, because of how wet it is here. It only loses its blooms in the very coldest months.
I see
@@PlantZone I love my gardenias! Thanks for the video!
Me too 🙂. You're welcome
What time this flower blooming day or night
Plz rpley😘
This plant will bloom day and night.
What variety of gardenia?
Gardenia Jasminoides 'Veitchii'
Sir there are buds on my plant but not blooming .please suggest .
Where is your current location? Sometimes it can be due to climate or temperature in the zone you are living in. Temperature extremes such as too hot or too cold also can cause this. Not enough sunlight also can cause this. Try to give temperature like in the tropical country. Make sure the plant gets good sunlight, if too hot best to put it in a bright area but indirect sunlight. Make sure the soil is moist. Give good flowering fertilizer and give mist to your plants to provide good humidity. These are general things you can do to help the plant flowers.
@@PlantZone Thank you Very much for the good suggestions
😉
What you mean by good light....
Hi. Sorry for the late reply. Good lighting in this context refers to the amount of light the plant needs. Sometimes, plant lovers place the plant in areas where the plant is not getting good amount of light which affects the plant such as in growing or flowering. So we need to be sure in what kind of light condition the plant will thrive.
@@PlantZone thank you
Why my gardenia flower make small flower then die before completing growth ?
Gardenia buds may drop before completing its growth due to any of these reasons:
Water Issues: Too much or too little water.
Nutrient Deficiencies: Lack of essential nutrients like magnesium and iron.
Environmental Stress: Temperature changes, low humidity, or incorrect lighting.
Pests: Insects like aphids and spider mites.
Soil pH: Soil that's too alkaline instead of acidic.
I put coffee grounds on top and still yellowing
Hi. All gardenia flower will bloom white and eventually after 9-10 days it will start wilting and when it starts to wilt the flower will change color to yellow and after few days become brown. Eventually it will dry and fall off from the plant. Usually this process takes about 2 weeks.
I gad my fardenuan plantts it bolooms before but when we transfer to another place since 2027 up to now never blooms agsin even by pruning or putung organic materials no results...pls help .
Gardenian...
From philipoines...
Hi. In this case, have you tried chemical fertilizer to boost flowering? Try npk 15-15-15 fertilizer. Ensure plant gets direct sunlight best is at last 8 hours a day.
More reason to drink coffee!
😂
My gardenia plant does not open flowers they wither and die b4 they open
Gardenia buds might not bloom due to issues like not enough sun, wrong watering, bad soil, extreme temperatures, or pests/diseases. Fixing these problems could help them bloom.

Do birds nest in it?
I never seen one yet, but I think it can.

What is coffee grounds please
Hi Shirrin, ground coffee is a bunch of coffee beans that have been ground to a specific size. It's not brew like the instant coffee. It will not dissolve into water.
@@PlantZone thank you for your prompt reply. So coffee beans need to be scattered on the soil of gardenia plants correct
Yes, the used one.
@@PlantZone oh what if we donot drink coffee and donot have used beans
@@shirrinrsarkaree8606 ask any coffee shop)
The buds in my plant do not open
Hi. May I know your current location? Many factors can cause gardenia buds not to open or bloom such as soil conditions, watering errors, location, etc. However, in my experience, talking to many growers, most of the time it is due to the location the plant is being grown. This plant does not do well in all places unless the climate is similar to a tropical climate. Gardenias are best grown in a warm tropical-like environment. In some locations, the sun will be even hotter than tropical temperature, this can make the buds drop too. At another location, if it is too cold, especially at night when the temperature drops, can also cause the plant not to bloom. If you are not in the tropical region, try creating a tropical microclimate zone for the plant. Also, ensure the plant is in well-draining soil which is rich in organic matter. Water the plant only when necessary, don't water the flower buds. Water the plant around the soil. Also check around the flower buds if there any pest, sometimes the pest can make the buds drop too. Make sure the plant gets plenty of sunlight too. Are you already doing this? If haven't, try them and let me know.
@@PlantZone
Thank you
I think it’s a combination of things as you stated .
I will try to water much less, let drain more . Not sure if should move away from direct sun as temp does drop at night . But will continue with coffee grounds . My favorite flower and can’t grow it lol
I’m in San Francisco Ca not tropical .
Thank you for your advice
Please provide transcript in English
Sure. Will do that. Thank you for the suggestion. 🙏
The gardenias in this video need iron.
OH BUZZ OFF!!!

How can I get iron?
wooly white aphids
Yes
Does coffee grounds attract pests?🤔
Hi. I have not seen coffee ground attracting pest in my experience. I have sprinkled in my garden and I found it helps to keep away worms, snails, slug and some bugs. I believe its because they don't like the acidity or smell.
@@PlantZone Good to know that! Definitely for ixora or santan use too! Thank you!
Do you spray your gardenia leaves with water ? 😊
I do when watering.
Yellow leaves in your plant
It's normal.
