To grow gardenia at home, you need to provide it with soft, fertile, slightly acidic soil that is breathable and easy to drain, a breeding environment of 20-28°C, and ensure sufficient moisture and sufficient light. When the soil is alkaline, you can add vinegar dropwise; when you find overgrown branches, cut them off in time.

1. Breeding environment

1. Breeding environment

①Soil: Gardenias like soft, fertile, slightly acidic soil that is breathable and easy to drain. It can be made from a mixture of leaf mold soil, peat soil and garden soil.

②Temperature: It prefers warm growth conditions. It is best to provide it with breeding conditions of 20-28℃ in spring and summer. When the temperature is high in summer, you can spray water mist to cool it down. In winter, the temperature is too high. Warmth measures need to be taken when the temperature is low.

③Light: It needs sufficient light to grow normally. Except for the need for shade when the sun is too strong in summer, it can be given full sun in other seasons.

④Moisture: It prefers moist growth conditions. If the soil is too dry, it is likely to be stunted. Always observe the soil condition in time and water before it dries out.

2. Acidic soil

It needs to be cultivated in slightly acidic soil, otherwise it will be difficult to grow normally. If the soil does not meet the standard, you can add a few drops of salt-free vinegar when watering. This can effectively reduce the PH value of the soil and provide a suitable growth environment for the plants.

3. Prune in time

It has strong germination power, so you should pay attention to it at ordinary times. Once you find any overgrown branches, cut them off immediately to avoid affecting the flowering and the ornamental value of the plant. In addition, if diseased branches are found, they should be cut off immediately to avoid infection.
