I've got the opposite problem, blooms but yellowing leaves inspite of blood meal, epsom salts and miracle gro.

ncgator, are you certain that you haven't over fertilized? That is always a possibility with miracle gro. Also, climate can have something to do with bloom time, so if you've had a spring season that is a bit unusual, perhaps that might be the cause. It sounds like your plant may still bloom, albeit later than usual, right?

Hold off on the fertilizer, that's for sure.

I don't think I've overfertilized; I was actually going to give them another shot. Thanks for the warning. I'll hold off and see what happens...

Luckily my gardenias are doing great. I don't have them in full sun. I also have babies that are taking forever. I guess I'm thankful for something blooming that thrips don't like!!\
