Bury a bit of "red" at the bottom of the pot, then sprinkle on some "sour water" - the gardenia will be covered in blooms and its fragrance will fill the house.

Keep one or two gardenias in your small yard or at home, and when they bloom, the fragrance spreads all around. This not only adds to the comfort of the surroundings, but more importantly, it cultivates your character and brings a pleasant, comfortable mood.

However, many flower lovers have this doubt: after painstakingly caring for a potted gardenia for a long time, either the leaves turn yellow and wilt or very few flowers appear. Such an outcome not only makes many flower lovers who enjoy growing potted gardenias lose confidence.

In fact, it is not hard to get a gardenia to grow lush and bloom beautifully. As long as you follow this method of care, you will get unexpected results. Today, the editor will offer up these little tips to share with everyone.

That is, when caring for gardenias, we only need to add a little pig blood to the bottom of the flower pot, because pig blood is rich in iron and other trace elements, which can effectively promote the healthy growth and flowering of gardenias. Using this kind of thing to care for gardenias really works well, and this raw material is cheap, so for ordinary enthusiasts there is no big problem.

The second thing is to sprinkle on some sour water. This sour water is the acidic liquid left after fermenting pickled greens at home. You can also choose the vinegar used as a household condiment. But no matter which kind of sour water it is, it cannot be used directly to water the gardenia. You must take an appropriate amount and mix it evenly with an appropriate amount of clean water. Usually, we mix the sour water and clean water at a ratio of 1:5.

Especially in summer, when it is rather hot, we can do this three times a month, but it must not be watered during the high-temperature heat at noon, otherwise it will cause the potted plant to burn at its heart. Gardenias cared for in this way have green leaves and many large flowers. Because gardenias like acidic soil, after spraying, it not only ensures the acidity of the soil, but also effectively removes the odor of organic fertilizer in the pot.

Likewise, pig blood is used to bury at the bottom of the pot because it decomposes easily, and after decomposition the pig blood is rich in phosphorus and potassium, which promotes the growth of gardenia flower buds and young shoots. As long as these two kinds of flower fertilizer are used properly, the gardenia will surely be covered in blooms and its fragrance will fill the house. Now that you know these little care tips, do you understand?
