another source of brown tips is chemicals in the water you use to water your plant. i only use well, distilled, or rain water.

I have read this as well and i certainly appreciate the helpful tip. I would like some others input on the situation i have described. switching water is an easy fix and like i mentioned the tips seem to be improving already.

I just received a Gardenia plant last Thursday, never had one before, left it outside and it rained(alot). Think it got too much rain b/c the foilage started to turn yellow. Brought it inside (Sunday) didn't water any more until yesterday (Tuesday). The soil was very dry and the foilage was starting to droop. I think I over watered it, so I put it outside on the front porch to let it dry out a bit. Ment to bring it in last night, but I didn't and left it outside all day. I'm still at work and havn't seen it yet. Afraid that being outside all day would have hurt it. Please someone help this poor beginner.
