HOC: Garden – Gardenia
I love gardenia’s! I love the smell. I love that they are “finickey” plants that need a lot of specific needs. I think that’s awesome. I’ve killed previous gardenias (Harry gardenia, may you rest-in-peace) but I was able to tend to some of my family’s flowers while they wintered in Florida and received one for Mother’s day this year.
I learned they like to:
- drink coffee
- receive regular misting with distilled water
- and have an evening or two a week by a humidifier.
In return they gave me a steady stream of these:
Gardenia
Wasn’t that sweet?
