Growing & Maintenance Tips for Gardenia Summer Snow
Best grown in well-drained, humus-rich, acidic soil in light to moderate shade. Plant in fall or spring in warmer climates, choosing a location with minimal competition from tree roots. Gardenias dislike root disturbance, so handle them carefully when planting. Fertilize with products formulated for acid-loving plants and supplement with iron as needed.
