HOW TO GROW Pelargonium hyb.

When to Set Outside: About a week after last frost, when nighttime temperatures remain above 40°F.

Placement & Cultivation

Geraniums traveled from South Africa and were cultivated and marveled over in glasshouses by the early 1600s, and we love them still for their varied beautiful leaves and flower colors. Scented geraniums offer a summer of scent, best placed in sun and near where you can pick a leaf or two and enjoy their sensational fragrance. Be sure to grow in freely-draining soil or in clay pots with good drainage and allow the soil to dry before watering. Scented types do fine planted in the ground with summer rains not discouraging them. Flowers are produced in late spring and early summer after a cool period in fall and winter. Prune after flowering ceases to shape and prepare for bringing indoors in late fall before frost, if desired, placing in sun in a cool room below 60F.
Final Spacing: 1.5'
Water Use: Low Water Use
Watering Details: Water when soil is dry 2" down into pot. Geraniums suffer if the soil stays saturated with water, so water only after soil has dried.
Soil pH: Prefers neutral.
Fertilizer: Fertilize monthly with 5-10-5 low nitrogen organically sourced fertilizer. Do not fertilize in winter indoors.
Diseases & Pests: Aphids and mealybugs can be troublesome; if detected, treat with an insecticidal soap or neem oil. Avoid botrytis by spacing properly, not wetting the foliage when watering, and keeping dead plant material, such as spent flowers and leaves, cleaned up.
When to Cut For Bouquets: Adds fragrance to cut flower bouquets or dried for a scented addition to potpourii.

Lovely geranium Sunday, September 13, 2020

By FORT COLLINS , CO

Select Seeds Confirmed Purchase

I am a fan of unusual geraniums, this one performed especially well in our Colorado conditions. It grew vigorously all season on a third floor north-east facing balcony, survived everything that our weather threw at it, and just kept thriving. Love everything about it; definitely would grow it again. Looks just like the catalog picture and is lovely to look at all the time.
