The plants themselves look healthy , but the buds all appear to rot before they fall off and none of them ever bloom.

You are probably watering the plant to much. It is common knowledge that's mostly the reason for dropping buds in gardenia's. The plant does not mind but the buds seem to.
Ground should be moist but not wet. Think about a squeezed sponge. That's about how wet it should be.

The watering thing is true, but I also would make sure that the plant is getting enough sun. You don't want full sun in most areas, but you do want some.

Try watering less often when they bud.
