Is there any special treatment that I should be giving my gardenia.
The leaves are turning yellow. The flower buds were on the plant when
I bought it a month ago and they are still tightly closed and the
small "petals" around the bud are turning yellow.

I had a scale problem cured with a systemic insecticide. Shows up as bumps
under leaves. Also spider mites but can keep down by misting.
