GeraniumPelargonium spp.

Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry to the touch. Avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during winter months when the plant's growth slows down.

Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions.

Prune plants in early spring to encourage bushier growth and more flowers. Remove dead or faded blooms regularly to promote continuous flowering.

Pinch back the tips of young shoots to maintain a compact shape and prevent leggy stems.

Propagate from stem cuttings taken in spring or early summer. Cut 7-10 cm long pieces, remove lower leaves, and dip the cut end in rooting hormone. Plant in well-draining potting mix and keep moist until roots form.

Repot geraniums every 1-2 years in spring, or when they become root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one. Use a fresh, well-draining potting mix. Ensure the drainage holes are clear.
