Native to China and Japan but also found in tropical regions of Southeast Asia, the Pacific islands and South Africa.
It is not recommended to spray vinegar water on gardenia plants as it can harm the plant. Gardenias prefer acidic soil, but vinegar is too acidic and can damage the plant's roots and foliage. It is best to use a mild, acidic fertilizer specifically designed for gardenias to ensure their health and growth.
A gardenia is an evergreen acid loving plant. If you plan to keep it indoors, then be prepared to give it afternoon partial sun. It likes the fertilizer for azalias and rhododendrons, and doesn't like wet feet. The occasional yellow leaf is normal, in fact, the plant may have up to 10% yellow leaves during flowering. Do not be alarmed as this is normal behavior for the gardenia. If you live in a moderate climate, you can grow this plant outdoors. It loves a shade garden, and will happily blend in with azalias. My gardenia bush is about 18 years old, and is 8 feet tall and 15 feet around. I live in zone 9.
No, a dwarf gardenia is not a nonvascular plant; it is a vascular plant. Vascular plants, including flowering plants like gardenias, have specialized tissues (xylem and phloem) that transport water, nutrients, and food throughout the plant. Nonvascular plants, such as mosses, lack these tissues and typically rely on diffusion for the movement of substances.
Without being able to see the roots of the gardenia, it's hard to say if they've had any activity. The roots of the plant are often shallow so it may look as though they're not growing anymore.
A house plant can be grown through vegetative propagation
Yes, plant your gardenia in full sun to light shade. They should be outside not inside.
