Should I Cut Off the Dead Flowers on My Gardenia Bush?

Question

I have a gardenia bush that I keep indoors. I was wondering if I am supposed to trim the dead flowers off. If so, I need to know where to trim it and whether new flowers will bloom.

Answer 1

Spent gardenia blooms may be picked off as they turn cream to buff. Usually they simply fall off. Maturing flower buds should continue to open.
