Good evening. It is possible you are watering or fertilizing too much. Please see the attached web site. Follow your fertilizer recommendations, and good luck - the gardenia is a beautiful flower.





From the attached web site:



"One of the most difficult problems in gardenia culture is bud drop or bloom failure. Causes include root injury, insect damage, and unfavorable weather conditions.

Root injury may occur because of nematode infestations, poor watering practices, poorly drained soils, excessive fertilization or mechanical injury.





An excessive number of nematodes in the soil often damages roots and prevents normal uptake of water and nutrients.



Poorly drained, wet soils, or excessive watering excludes oxygen, thereby causing root injury.



Too much fertilizer adds excessive soluble salts and can cause root-system dehydration. It is important, therefore, to follow fertilizer recommendations.



Mechanical injury to root systems occurs most often during transplanting so be careful. Always plant gardenias at the same depth as they grew in the nursery. Don't transplant while they are in bud unless flowers are unimportant.



Insects damage unopened buds, causing them to drop. Thrips and aphids are most troublesome. Usually pear-shaped aphids are visible but tiny thrips can go undetected until they cause considerable damage.

During excessively hot, dry weather bud drop is prevalent because the plant cannot absorb water rapidly enough to compensate for water loss through transpiration. Maintenance of adequate soil moisture and frequent light syringing aids in reducing water loss and bud drop under such conditions. Gardenias may also experience bud drop following a rapid drop in temperature, even if the temperature does not reach freezing. "
