Default Gardenia Trouble.

Hi , i have a Gardenia jasmonoides that was in flower when i got it,the
flower buds that were left died off, they went brown and dry.Now the
leaves are turning yellow in places then going brown and drop off.There
are new leaves appearing,but some leaves continue to drop.I think i may
have been letting it get too much on the dry side ? .
If this one goes in the dustbin it will be the last one i try and grow as
i have had 2 in the past and found them very difficult to grow!
Any thoughts?


Are you using rain water? They do not like hard water.
