Selected High-Quality Peat
For best performance
For pots
Place some GARDENIA at the bottom of the pot. Add the plant and fill in around it using only the same potting soil. Press lightly and water well.
For repotting
Carefully remove the plant from its old pot, keeping the root ball intact. Place it in the new pot and fill in with GARDENIA, without compressing the substrate too much.
For gardens
Dig a hole larger than the plant's root ball and fill it with GARDENIA. Place the plant, top up with the same potting soil and water sufficiently.
