The plant grows according to the size of the space in which it is grown and has a variety of colors that decorate any environment.
Here are some tips on how to grow a beautiful geranium easily.
Seeds or Seedlings
You can plant geraniums from their seeds. Simply place them in the ground 1.5 cm deep and wait for them to germinate.
Also, it can be grown from seedlings that are cuttings, a faster way to do it.
It is a very resistant plant that adapts easily to different places. However, it is necessary to pay attention to the amount of sun it receives, since it should not be too much. It is recommended that if the temperature exceeds 25 ° C, it is placed under a tree so that it is not so exposed.
Water
It is a plant that does not need large quantities of water, since if it receives more than it needs, it drowns.
So pay attention to the amount of water you will give your geranium. Water only when the soil is completely dry.
Pot or Garden
You can grow in a pot or directly in the garden. So choose a definite place where the plant receives sun without overdoing it. Remember that the maximum temperature it can withstand is 25° C.
Soil
The soil in which your geranium will be planted must be rich in nutrients, if you notice that it needs it, do not hesitate to use fertilizers.
Remember to place it in well-drained soil, where the roots of the plant can more easily absorb the water they receive.
How to reproduce and make geranium seedlings
- Find an adult plant that has developed and cut it off at the ends so that the branch comes out complete with a few buds.
- You can scrape off the end and leave it in water for a while, or take it directly to the ground.
- With the branch on the ground, keep the soil moist and slightly exposed to the sun, so partial shade is ideal.
- Over time, its roots will develop and become attached to the soil, absorbing the nutrients it needs.
