I have two gardenias and when I notice them yellowing I sprinkle some of the Bayer's Azalea, Camellia & Rhododendron Fast Acting pellets onto them. I just sprinkle around the drip line and water, and this vanquishes any yellowing within two or three days.

I also use this for my vincas when they start yellowing.

I apply this whenever I see them yellowing; I assume my soil is void of the nutrients it needs and I use it on an as-needed-basis.

I hope this was helpful

Okay flowermum, I'll try that. Thanks.

Thanks scandia. I didn't know if I could expect the yellowing to continue because of transplant shock, or other causes. The yellowing seems to be subsiding and there's a lot of new growth up top, so maybe this is gonna work.

Will that Miracle Grow Evergreen work for Camillias, etc too? I'd like to get something that works for several plants, if possible. If not, no big deal.

Can I expect the Gardenias to not bloom this year, and possibly next because of transplanting?

Is Miracle Gro Miracid the same stuff? It says it is for evergreens. I have some yellowing leaves on the lower parts of my gardenia. What else could help?

I bought some 8-10-8 that said Rhodo's, Azaleas and something else. All the major suppliers have their version of this type of mix and labeled fairly similar.

Anyway, I sprinkled a little around the dripline about 2 weeks ago and there are blooms everywhere...on all three Gardenias. So, skip my last question. :)

I use ironite on mine when they start turning yellow and they get soooooooo pretty and dark green. Mine are large bushes now. In fact I just bought some to put on them the other day because they are yallow again. I have to do it quite often. I buy the liquid kind and mix it with water.

Heard so many bad things about Ironite I'm kinda nervous about using it. Anyway, my Gardenias have sprung to life and are blooming all over the place. Of course, the rain we're getting is helping a great deal.

i had 3 plants and over the winter 2 plants died I have 1 plant left what would u do the leavesjust dryed up and the branches dryed ang died
