Reasons why gardenias wilt

The reason why gardenias wilt is mostly due to improper flower-growing operations.

Improper watering

Improper watering causes the plant to wilt. Generally, it is because of too little watering that leads to drought and the branches and leaves are not hydrated. Or too much watering may cause water accumulation and root rot. At this time, the plant's growth will lack energy and become wilted.

Pests and diseases

Some diseases and pests will have adverse effects on the growth of plants. In addition to some local ones, they may also cause the plants to wilt. When using pesticides, it is also easy to cause the plants to wilt due to seedling burn.

Indiscriminate fertilization

Inappropriate fertilization, including excessive fertilization or misuse of fertilizers, can cause root burn in plants.

In addition, there are some natural factors, such as exposure to high temperatures or frost damage.
