Can you put coffee grounds in #gardenia #Plumeria #bougainvillea or #PeaceLily ? Iโ€™ve read that gardenias like it for the acidity but it also nitrogen which is good for all plants. Does anyone know anything about this?
#PeaceLilies can benefit from coffee grounds as they are a rich source of nutrients for the plant. Additionally, they prefer acidic soil, and coffee grounds add acidity to the soil. To get the maximum benefits from the grounds, use them as compost or liquid fertilizer.

Coffee grounds do give nitrogen and acidity witch helps #Plumeria plants to grow healthy.

#Gardenia plants also appreciate coffee grounds, since they are rich in nitrogen, magnesium, and potassium, coffee grounds are oftentimes a more favorable Gardenia fertilizer than commercially available fertilizers.

For the #Bougainvillea plants, coffee grounds are great too, for better result, try mixing one part cofee grounds with wood ash or kelp, eggshels and banana peels.

All into a nutshell : Yes, you can put coffee grounds in Gardenia, Plumeria, Bougainvillea and Peace lily. It is providing more health to the plant while growing.
I put coffee grounds in the soil of my #Bougainvillea and it seems to be loving it. I am in Ontario where it is still very cold but my east window gives the plant sun all morning. Until it gets to be summer, so far my plant is doing well.
