Gardenia is native to all provinces and regions south of the Yangtze River Basin in China. It is warm and humid, cold resistant, suitable for growth at 18~28℃, and the winter temperature is not lower than-10℃. Like light, but also resistant to semi-shade, direct light, high temperature plus too much watering, easy to cause yellow leaves in the lower part, or even the whole plant death. It should be loose and fertile, acid soil with good drainage, pH value of 4.5~6.0, more than 6.5 leaves begin to yellow, with the passage of time, leaves gradually fall off from bottom to top. Gardenia has strong resistance to sulfur dioxide and poor resistance to soot.

Gardenia cut off the top to promote branching is conducive to more flowers. Gardenia flowers are mostly three-pronged branches, often forming overlapping branches, seriously affecting ventilation and light transmission, resulting in thin and disordered branches, so timely pruning can form beautiful plant type. Gardenia is an evergreen shrub with large leaves and large flowers. The main branches should be few and not many.

First of all, we should cultivate an upright trunk, which can be branched. Flower buds are formed in April every year, so when removing branches on some trunks in April and May, care should be taken to retain flower buds. In June, flowers will be cut off immediately after failure, which can reduce nutrient consumption and promote new branches. When the new branch grows to 2~3 nodes, the first topping is carried out, and part of the axillary buds are erased to avoid excessive and disorderly crowding. In August, 3 branches are picked and crown is cultivated. After 2~3 years, dignified and beautiful potted gardenia can be formed.

Gardenia easy to sprout branches, disturb tree type, should be at any time for shaping pruning, pick unwanted buds. 5-7 The moon must be picked to promote flower bud differentiation.
