GARDENIA AUGUSTA 'VIETNAM'
Vietnamese Gardenia

Gardenia Vietnam is one of the newest gardenias to show up in the market. It will grow to about 5-6 feet. It is an amazing bloomer, flowering intermittently during most of the year. The flowers are
single, large and fragrant. Gardenia Vietnam will grow in full to partial sun. Likes average water.
The soil has to be porous (good drainage), and slightly acidic. The addition of compost to the
soil is beneficial. The use of a fertilizer for acid loving plants is also recommended. In many
situations a regular “palm fertilizer” is enough. Freezing temperatures should be avoided. Their
resistance to nematodes is still unknown therefore soils with poor organic content should
be avoided, unless the plant is grown potted and above the ground.
