About Geranium Plant

Geranium is a genus of 422 species of flowering annual, biennial, and perennial. All geranium plants make excellent ground cover and space filler in your garden &  landscape also. A pelargonium is a hybrid species of the geranium plant. The difference between geranium and pelargonium is in how they flower. The noticeable differences are that geranium has a flat-like saucer shape while a pelargonium has a trumpet-like shape of a flower that faces upward from the stem, rather than a flat five-petal flower head.

Geranium Care

  • Full sun to Partial Shade. They will bloom best in full sun.
  • Allow soil to dry to some extent between waterings, then water thoroughly.
  • During the winter, water much less, but do not let the roots dry out entirely. Geraniums do best when given a period of dormancy through the winter months, during which they use less water and do not grow much. See below for more overwintering instructions.
  • To encourage blooming, deadhead spent flowers regularly.
  • To promote business and curtail legginess, pinch back the stems.
