Pot size: 10 cm Height: 5 cm Gardenia jasminoides 'Crown Jewel' is a beautifully fragrant and elegant variety of Gardenia, known for its glossy foliage and stunning white blooms. Here’s a detailed description, including alternative names, general information, and care tips: Care Tips: Light: Gardenias require bright, indirect light to thrive. While they can tolerate some direct sunlight, they prefer light shade to prevent leaf burn. Too much direct sunlight can cause the leaves to turn yellow or brown, especially during hot summer months. Watering: Regular watering is important, but be sure to allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Gardenias prefer consistently moist soil but do not like to sit in waterlogged soil. Humidity is crucial for Gardenias, so misting the plant or placing it on a humidity tray can help during dry seasons. Soil: Use acidic, well-draining soil for optimal growth. A mix designed for acid-loving plants or azaleas is ideal. The pH should be between 5.0 to 6.0, which is slightly acidic.
