can it be grown outdoor?

Yes, if you are in the warmer zones that don't hard freeze. If you are in zones that hard freeze you need to move it inside in the winter months.

It is a tropical plant. So, if you live in an area that is warm all year, you should be able to plant it outside. Unfortunately, I live in zone 6. I have mine potted. It is outside for about 6-8 months and inside the house for the rest.

Yes, but not if the temperatures drop below 32 degrees. We're going to move ours outside in about a month, it's not getting enough sunshine inside, so it hasn't done much of anything over the winter.

I protect mine when temperatures go below 32 and bring it in when it goes below 27. Right now it is full of flowers.

You can grow this tree outdoors if your temperatures do not go below freezing, but it will do best if your temperatures do not go below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Otherwise, you can grow it in a pot, bringing it inside during cold weather and taking it outside during warmer weather. I have several varieties of citrus fruit trees (lime, lemon, and orange) that I grow by taking them inside and back out. So far, all have thrived this way, not even dropping fruit during the transition from indoors to out, or vice-versa.

Almost all plants that grow outside can grow inside (but not all indoor plants will grow outdoors) the question is under what conditions-it it receives adequate sun, moisture and even temperature, it will live but whether or not it blooms under these conditions I couldn't tell you not knowing those factors. The plants I recieved are growing but not robustly which I attribute to our wierd weather this year-in the 60s one week upper 90s the next

I doubt that it is rated for outdoor use. Perhaps in a weather-protected enclosure you could.

Absolutely. . . Just put it in a large pot and good soil. I feed mine Miracle Grow diluted in water once a month. It should flourish.

Don't know , but i guess you can use it outdoor , but it will not last long.

Yes. the internet says that it grows in zones 3 to 11. I don't live that far north but my winters are cold. Mine does fine.

I have one (its about 3 months old now) and I live just South of Seattle. Currently, it is in my windowsill and doing just fine and I have heard that you can plant them outside as well as they are very hardy! So, a definite yes to indoor growing and a tentative yes if you want to put it outside. :)

No. The plant must be grown elsewhere. I waited until the vine was long enough to hang over until I planted it in the Topsy Turvy.

Mine was grown in east TN and we had temps in the low 90's.I would think it would do fine(it was planted in a shady area)

Oh sorry it didn't grow for me in New York. I am not sure if it will grow in Ireland you might want to ask the seller. Good Luck. Devika

Whne I read about it, I think it can be either. Mine's on the outside deck right now (and growing really well) but in my area, I will be bringing it inside for the winter months. Don't know how that will go as I've never had a gardenia before.

My greenhouse is in constant sun which makes it get extremely hot. I would venture to guess, yes, it would be able to stand a grow light.

No, this is for outside garden use. Take a look at Dr. Earth 759. Also here at Amazon

I'm not sure I could be much help unfortunately mine died just after I got it but i think you can set it up in a nice warm environment so it doesn't get too cold you should be fine.. now transplanting it I wouldn't think you would be to do it immediately... I don't know the growth rate on this particular species I think you'd be fine until spring...

With protection, yes. I had a relative plant one successfully in sheltered portion of his yard in Charlottesville, VA and it did well. I planted mine near the house hear in southern New England and it seems to be doing well. I would plant it near a heated structure, cover it with hay or mulch, then plastic in the winter and cut it back before covering. Give it a lightly shaded location, mulch the roots and it will just love Manassas. You can see one growing in the botanical gardens in Arlington. I saw one growing successfully in Salamanca, New York to an enormous size and another doing very well in Norwich, Connecticut. Good luck! With protection, yes.

No just losen the soil so the roots can get it. Make sure the it is not packed tight.

It grows great in California..I have it only on pathways in a shadier side of the yard..It really looks great between bricks and planting areas..Good stuff.
