Gardenia plants are popular for their strong sweet scented flowers. Gardenia
is the national flower of Pakistan. In Japan and China, the flower is called
Kuchinashi (Japanese) and Zhi zi (Chinese).
Gardenia plants are evergreen shrubs. Their small stalks can grow to 1-5
meters tall. The leaves are 5-50 centimeters long and 3-25 centimeters wide, dark
green and glossy with a leathery texture. The flowers come in small groups, white,
or pale yellow, with 5-12 lobes (petals) from mid-spring to mid-summer. Many
species have strong aromas.
To cultivate gardenia as a house plant is not easy. This species can be difficult
to grow because it originated in warm humid tropical areas. It demands high
humidity and bright (not direct) light to thrive. It flourishes in acidic soil with good
drainage and thrives in 20 -23 C during the day and 15 -16 C in the evening. Potting
soils developed specifically for gardenias are available. It grows no longer than 18
inches in height and width when grown indoors. In climates where it can be grown
outdoors, it can reach a height of 6 feet. If water hits the flowers, they will turn
brown.
