Leaves yellowy and green on veins (see photo) I have sprayed 4 times with Iron Chelate during April. Flower buds do not mature, rot and drop, usually one or two buds mature. It is a Gardenia Magnifica.
What can I do.

This might seem obvious, but have you checked the pH? If it's too alkaline your plant may not be able to absorb the iron.
It certainly does look like an iron deficiency. I generally use iron sulphate on acid-loving plants- it is cheaper and works faster than iron chelate.
