: I recently dug up two Gardenia plants and replanted them. They don't look so good. I put compost down when I planted and have been watering them every couple of days. The leaves are starting to turn yellow and the branches are drooping. HELP!

Hi Charon,

Unless you live in the desert and it's over 80* every day, stop watering so much. An inch of water a week is enough.
