Best conditions: Place in full sun for at least six to eight hours per day.
Hot climates: In very hot climates, provide some afternoon shade to prevent scorched leaves.
Too little light: If your plant’s leaves turn yellow and it is slow to produce blooms, move it to a sunnier spot
Water
Frequency: Water potted plants and young bedding plants two to three times per week during the summer. Geraniums grown in containers dry out more quickly and may need daily watering during heat waves.
Wait for dryness: Allow the top 1 to 2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. These plants tolerate dry soil better than wet, so it is important to avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot.
Method: Avoid splashing water on the foliage and blooms, as this can cause disease.
Soil
Drainage is key: Use a fertile, well-draining soil.
Amendments: If your garden soil is poor, mix in compost to improve it.
Potting mix: For container-grown plants, use a high-quality, loose potting mix.Â
Fertilizing
During growing season: Feed monthly during the spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer.
Overfertilizing: Avoid giving too much fertilizer, as this will encourage lush foliage growth at the expense of blooms.Â
Overwintering
Protect from frost: If you live in an area with freezing winters, you can bring potted geraniums indoors to overwinter.
Placement: Keep them in a bright, sunny spot, such as a south-facing window, and water less frequently.
