11″ Gardenias and 12″ Gardenia Tree

Moving it can cause it to drop leaves.
They are not drought tolerant and need to be kept moist but not wet. Do not overwater. If kept indoors, set in a pan of water; replenish the pan with fresh water when empty. Keeping your plant very moist will keep buds producing fragrant flowers for several months. If planted outside, water every day with 1 cup of water.

8″ Garden Mum 
10″ Garden Mum 
12″ Garden Mum 
14″ Garden Mum
Mums are a favorite fall flower for many reasons. They are resilient, beautiful and they have a sweet and spicy scent. Mums require lots of direct sunlight, at least 6 hours per day. They will bloom when they have the perfect lighting conditions (8 hours of sunlight and 16 hours of darkness).
When growing in a pot, mums need well-drained soil. A potting mix that is 1/3 good potting soil, 1/3 course sand and 1/3 peat moss would work well. Mums need a lot of water because they are in direct sunlight. Water in the morning and also in the evening. Check to see if the soil is dry before watering. They love humidity so if you keep them indoors you will need to keep them near a humidifier.
The minimum temperature is 20 degrees F and the maximum temperature is 90-95 degrees F. Optimal is between 62 and 72 degrees F.
Fertilizing should be done once a month with liquid fertilizer if you are growing it in a pot. Wait a month after planting the seedlings and stop before the buds open.
