Can it be planted in the fall or would it be better to wait until spring.

Spring would be best if you live more in the north. I planted mine during summer. It is growing nicely, but no flowers yet. I will mulch and have it in a more sheltered area so it survives winter. Hopefully it will really take off next spring.

I planted mine in the spring, but it never grew. Check with your local nursery.

Always had better luck in the spring so roots get established. You can still plant in the fall but it will be slow going the following summer.

Plant indoor to start and move to outside when it will no longer freeze. They are very cold sensitive and prefer a bit of shade for best blooms.

It can be planted in the fall concidering your climate. I planted mine in the spring and it was slow growing at first. It is now over 7 ft tall and still going. I have a question about pruning because it is getting too tall for my trellis.

I was told early fall, but you had better check with your local lawn/nursery center, because it depends on the type of grass you have, and how thick the thatch is. BUT, it is good for the lawn. Hope this helps, somewhat.

Love my banana tree!!! I would recommend waiting to plant until later this spring- maybe late April when warmer temps are more consistent. This is a very fast growing plant so you'll have a beautiful plant in no time! I'm in MO and I cover mine with a heavy layer of mulch & they weather the winter beautifully!

No it will not because my growing season is not long enough. It's just ornamental.

I am waiting til Spring to plant, I have no idea. If you have have high winds and very cold winters I would put in sheltered environment or greenhouse.

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.

No, I'm sorry to say. It has grown a little bit since I received it, but the instructions said that I should stop watering it at the end of October, so I'm assuming it will go dormant until the Spring.

yes and best to lay out late winter early spring if spring is dry water occasionally until it sprouts and gets established

I live in the high desert (4000 ft.) and I planted in the early summer. Nurseries who sell these or any plants should let customers know when to plant certain plants. If I still lived in Sacramento, Ca. I would have planted this in the spring. Good luck...

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...

Grow it in a pot till next spring or for a year or two before planting. Ps You can supposedly use the cuttings to propagate new trees.

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.

Not sure what zone you live in. I would plant when grass starts to green up.

I have used for several years and wait until good spring growth starts. Love this product.

if you live in the south, probably not too late. it's a really cool summer here and i started mine in may and they're just now getting where they might bloom soon. annual that likes the heat.

It depends on what part of the contry you are in. I plant mine in spring after danger of frost.

This plant could be planted outside in zones 10-12. Mine is in a pot outside in a shaded area.. but i will need to bring it in when fall comes.
