Care Information
General Care
Watering: Gardenias need 1 inch of water/rain each week. Keep the soil constantly damp but not soggy Sun: Full sun to light shade. Pruning: Prune the gardenia bush after flowering has ceased to keep the plant in good condition.
Planting Guidelines
Fall or spring is the most suitable time for planting the gardenia bush. Select a spot with full sun to light shade and where the soil is acidic. Dig a hole that is twice as wide than the root ball. Place fresh soil at the bottom of the hole and place gardenia in so the top of the root ball is even with the soil surface. Fill in soil and water deeply. You can apply a 2inch layer of mulch to help retain moisture.
Winter Care
Gardenias are cold sensitive and may die during severe winters. You can protect gardenias in winter by covering them with a blanket during brief cold periods. In areas with heavy snow you can use a cardboard box to cover the shrub to avoid bending of branches with snow.
Potting & Container
Gardenias can be successfully grown in containers or treated as indoor plants. If growing a gardenia indoors insure, they receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight. High humidity is essential to indoor gardenia care. Keep in a 1 gallon for first 6 months then gradually increase to a 3 gallon.

I would like to first apologize for this error. I know that you put a lot of thought into this memorial gift and I am sure you felt rather embarrassed for her to not even know whom the gift came from.
We truly value you as a customer and hope you will allow us to make this right, re-earn your trust and business. As that valued and repeat customer, I am sure you are aware that we are a small family owned farm and we do take pride in what we do and always strive for excellence. I am truly disappointed to know that we fell short of both your expectations and our standards. I believe that sometimes there will be accidental mistakes because there of course is a human involved.
Truly,
Maleena
