Yellow leaves on my gardenias I live on the Gold Coast in Queensland Australia?
This is an old fashion remedy but it works and quite quickly ,epsom salts disolved in water and then sprinled over plant ,
Reply:Yellow leaves on a gardenia means the plant is in need of magnesium. My mother used to dissolve Epsom Salts (hydrated magnesium sulfate) in water in a watering can and pour on her gardenias. It works too.
Problem - Gardenia leaves are turning yellow.
Solution - Place some magnesium-rich fetitliser close to its roots. Within a couple of weeks the leaves should start to turn green (instead of sickly yellow). The plant should also begin flowering.

Happy gardening!
Reply:I'm on the goldcoast to and my gardenia also has a few yellow leaves. I'm sure that has happened before and they just fall off and more grow but mine is due for a bit of a prune so I will do that and throw a bit of feed around
