Geranium Ivy Seeds Of Wisdom
If planting in containers, choose planters that will be large enough to support growth of the plant. If you find the plant wilting between watering, this may be a sign that it needs to be repotted. Make sure there is adequate drainage and take care not to overwater.
Geraniums should be planted in an area that is sheltered from strong winds. Put them in a spot where there will be full sun for 6 to 8 hours a day. Use a well drained soil that is slightly acidic. Prepare the bed by fertilizing with a 5-10-5 fertilizer. Once the flowers are planted, fertilize once a month with a 10-10-10 fertilizer. Mulch the area and water once a week or as required.
The wild geranium is also called the Carolina geranium and is a semi-erect winter annual which is found throughout the United States and Canada. Geranium plants tend to break and wilt in windy locations so plant them in a protected area. It is commonly found in moist wooded areas or along stream banks, and can be easily recognized. They are fairly hardy, although not disease free and you must want their leaves carefully.
These perennials have many varieties included scented and ivy geranium particularly for a hanging basket.
