Arrived overnight, looking exactly like the photos
Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.

Survived me. That's a big deal.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.

Beautiful plant, slightly smaller than expected
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

About the Gardenia Plant
The Gardenia, or Gandhraaj, is an evergreen shrub prized for its glossy, dark green leaves and stunning white flowers that emit a powerful, sweet fragrance. Native to Asia and Africa, it thrives in warm climates and is a popular choice for Indian gardens due to its romantic appeal and strong scent. The plant typically blooms in winter, adding a burst of color and fragrance when many other plants are dormant. Its leathery foliage provides year-round interest, making it a versatile addition to any garden or terrace. Gardenias are known for their ornamental beauty and their ability to attract pollinators, making them both aesthetically pleasing and ecologically beneficial.
Light & Placement
Gardenias require bright, indirect sunlight for at least 4-5 hours a day to thrive. They should be placed in outdoor areas like gardens, terraces, or balconies that receive ample morning light but are protected from the harsh afternoon sun. Ideal temperatures for Gardenias range between 20-35 degrees Celsius. In extremely hot climates, provide some shade during peak summer months to prevent leaf scorch. Proper placement is crucial as it directly impacts the plant's ability to flower and maintain its vibrant foliage. Ensure the plant is positioned in a well-ventilated area to prevent fungal diseases that can occur in stagnant, humid conditions.
Watering & Humidity
Gardenias prefer consistently moist soil, especially during the growing season. Water the plant thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid water-logging as this can lead to root rot. Good drainage is essential, so ensure your pot has drainage holes. The plant thrives in humid conditions, so in drier climates, misting the leaves or placing a humidity tray nearby can help maintain the required moisture levels. During the cooler months, reduce watering frequency slightly, allowing the soil to dry out a bit more between waterings. Proper watering is key to preventing issues like yellowing leaves and bud drop, which are common problems with incorrect moisture levels.
Pet Safety & Toxicity
Gardenia plants are considered toxic to pets if ingested. The leaves and flowers contain compounds that can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain in cats and dogs. If you have pets, it's advisable to place the Gardenia in an area where they cannot access it. While the plant is safe for human handling, precautions should be taken to ensure curious pets do not chew on any part of the plant. If you suspect your pet has ingested any part of the Gardenia, contact your veterinarian immediately for advice.
