Commonly Asked Questions

When do Gardenias flower?

Gardenias will flower during the spring. Using a quality slow-release fertiliser, watering and mulching will ensure plants remain healthy and encourage flower production.

How do I choose the right Gardenia for my garden?

This depends on where you want to plant your Gardenia. If you are looking for something that will remain small and be suitable for a planter pot, select Gardenia Florida.

Florida can also be used to create low garden borders. If you are looking to create a larger garden border, Gardenia Magnifica will be more suitable.
