1、 How did you just buy Gardenia

1. Humidity: just bought gardenia, we must give it a high humidity environment, such as putting a few pots of water next to the plant. Otherwise, the air at home is dry, which is too different from the maintenance environment of small leaf Gardenia in the greenhouse, and it is easy to cause the plant leaves to wilt

2. Light: don't expose the Gardenia jasminoides just bought in the hot sun. It's best to put it in a place with sufficient astigmatism for a week, and then gradually increase the light intensity after the plant adapts to the new environment

3. Watering: Gardenia is fond of water and afraid of waterlogging. Usually, observe that the soil surface turns white, becomes dry and irrigates with water. Some stones can be padded between the flowerpot and the tray to increase the ventilation of the basin soil and prevent the plant from ponding and rotten roots

4. Note: Gardenia grandiflorum likes humidity. Under the condition of good ventilation, it can often spray water on the plant surface. But when Gardenia has buds, don't spray water, otherwise it's easy to fall off. If the plant leaves droop, it can be watered. Find a big bag to cover the flowers for one night, and the plant leaves can regain their standing the next day

2、 How to raise small leaf Gardenia after it is defeated

1. Pruning: the Gardenia jasminoides Ellis just bought is usually in the flowering period. After all the flowers bloom, cut off the two pairs of leaves at the top of the branches. By the way, cut off the branches with poor growth and put them in a place with soft light to promote the germination of new buds

2. Fertilization: Gardenia after pruning is the most lack of nutrition at this time. You can dig several small pits along the edge of the basin and bury a small amount of cake fertilizer and bone powder to supplement the nutrients consumed by the plant during flowering, promote its rapid growth and bloom again
