Gardenia - Houseplants

Gardenia is a delicate plant with glossy, dark green leaves that persist for a whole year and bloom wonderfully. Size: about 30 cmCare conditions: Gardenia needs a lot of light, but direct sunlight can lead to wilting of the leaves. The best place for gardenia in spring and summer is the windowsill of a west-facing window. The ideal temperature during the day can vary during the day between 21 and 24 C, while at night gardenia prefers temperatures between 15 and 18 C. Ensure good air circulation without letting the plant in the stream. *The bowl in the picture is for presentation. It is not included in the price. The plant is delivered in a plastic container. In winter, gardenia sits better on the windowsill of a south-facing window, and temperatures below 16 degrees can affect it. Some varieties also withstand temperatures of 10-15 C, but flowering can be affected. To water the gardenia most effectively, place the pot on a layer of gravel to be immersed in water, but not completely. In summer, spraying the leaves with water is recommended. In spring and summer, it is important that the soil is moist, but in winter watering can be rare, without letting the mixture dry completely between waterings. It is recommended to replant every spring, in March or April, with great care not to break the roots.
