Geraniums are perennial summer bloomers

For a long flowering period, clean geraniums regularly

Geraniums bloom very persistently and delight not only balcony owners with new flowers throughout the summer. But so that your plants can show their colorful splendor between May and October, you have to do a lot. This also includes not only regularly supplying the geraniums with water and fertilizer, but also cutting off dead shoots immediately.

What to do if geraniums don't want to bloom

Sometimes, however, geraniums do not want to flower even though they have good shoot growth and many leaves. In this case, you have to thin out the plant and make sure that enough light and air also get inside - too dense leaf growth can ensure that the buds cannot develop outwards due to a lack of light.

Tips

The two-colored butterfly geraniums 'Pelargonium Crispum' and the noble geraniums 'Pelargonium grandiflorum', which are mostly cultivated as indoor plants, produce particularly beautiful flowers.
