They are here on thursday so we shall see. I have several picky petunias that I grow year round that are not orchids. So I am very much a pro at the dang things. My gardenia started out at about a 1lb and in 3 yrs has grown over 22 inches around and 15 inches high and now weighs close to thirty in its pot. I usually grow it during winter and one of those blooms makes my entire house smell. Whew. And that plant is as picky if not worse than an orchid. Yeesh!
I agree. If you can grow a gardenia well, you can grow just about anything !
