🌺 Beloved for generations!
Bloom from spring to autumn
Growing Conditions
☀️ Lighting
Full sun - 6-8 hours a day! More sun = more flowers. In very hot climates - can benefit from light shade at noon. Ivy geranium prefers partial shade.
💧 Watering
Moderate - let the soil dry out between waterings! Water when the top 2-3 cm is dry. Tolerates dryness better than excess water! In pots during summer - maybe every day or two. Do not get the leaves wet.
🌱 Soil
Well-drained and fertile. High-quality potting mix with perlite. Excellent drainage is critical! Does not tolerate "wet feet" - standing water = root rot.
🌡️ Temperature
Loves heat! Ideally 18-27°C. Does not tolerate frost at all! Move outdoors only when night temps are above 13°C. In Israel - grows as a perennial in warm regions, or an annual in colder places.
Common Problems & Solutions
🥀 Few flowers / No blooming
Lack of light! Needs 6+ hours of sun. Also, excess nitrogen in fertilizer can cause foliage growth at the expense of flowers. Use a high-potassium fertilizer.
🍂 Yellow / dropping leaves
Overwatering! The most common reason. Let the soil dry between waterings. Check drainage. If roots are soft/black - rot.
🌿 Leggy / sparse stems
Lack of light or too high heat. Pinch tips! Encourage dense growth. Move to a brighter location.
🐛 Pests and diseases
Aphids, whitefly, mites - spray with potassium soap. Gray mold / rust - improve ventilation, do not wet leaves, remove infected parts.

Expert Tips
🎨 Types and colors
Types of Geranium:
• Zonal - Most common! Leaves with dark "rings"
• Ivy - Trailing, great for hanging baskets
• Scented - Fragrant leaves: lemon, rose, mint
• Regal (Martha Washington) - Large flowers, loves cool temperatures

Flower colors: Red (classic!), pink, salmon, orange, white, purple, bicolored
✂️ Pinching and Deadheading
Pinching: Pinching the stem tips encourages dense, branched growth!

Deadheading: Remove faded flower heads - encourages continuous blooming! Cut the entire stalk of the cluster back to the next leaf.

Pruning: If the plant becomes leggy - trim by ⅓. It will recover with denser growth.
❄️ Overwintering - save for next year!
Geraniums are perennials! You can save them for next year:

Option 1 - Houseplant: Bring indoors before frost. Bright, cool spot (15-18°C). Water moderately.

Option 2 - Dormancy: Dig out, shake off soil. Hang upside down in a cool (7-13°C) and dark place. Soak roots in water once a month. In spring - replant!

Option 3 - Cuttings: Take cuttings at the end of summer - easiest to succeed!
📏 Size and uses
Size: 30-90 cm height and spread (depending on type)

Uses:
• Balcony window boxes - The Israeli classic!
• Pots - Great as a container plant
• Hanging baskets - Beautiful trailing ivy geranium
