Default Gardenia

Consider which fertiliser you are using a soluble one may be best you need
to check the NPK Ratio on the side of the pack. K or potassium should be
high for flowering. if you have a high N number you will find that it grows
great leaves. P is for the root system. If this fails chat to your nursery
about fertiliser and position of the plant Hope this helps. Heather.

Hello everyone!

I am new to this group but I have already learned so much after reading
through so many interesting posts.

I hope you can help me solve a problem of mine, its not overly important

but
I am merely curious.

I have a beautiful Gardenia it is SO healthy, lush green shiny leaves, no
yellowing and it sends out new shoots constantly... but it has never
flowered. I have had it in various positions from full sun to part sun

but
alas it keeps enlarging in size and is a picture of health but Ive not

even
had one bud from it. What am I doing wrong?

Kind regards

Leanne
