Gardenia

I’m in awe of such incredible beauty. And the smell to match. Mother nature doing her thing. #mothernatureisamazing #gardinia #mini-tree

Any good tips on keeping this beauty alive and healthy? I’m struggling with mine as it’s warming up. The leaves started to dry severely because I neglected it one day. It’s bouncing back but it’s still not back 100 percent. I gave it a better draining and currently have it under a grow light. How many hours would it need under the light/sun? @claudethegirl

@rudester1 unfortunately, no. I have two in the ground that didn't do much. And this tree never could really figure out what she wanted. First it got mushrooms because it was too moist. Then I moved it and it dried out. But when it bloomed they were amazing. I will try again this year. I'm determined to get it right.

Yay! My first Gardinia flower is here. I'm amazed at how wonderful the area smells just with this one.
