Title: Pelargonium cuttings
Post by: caroline7758 on April 18, 2017, 19:20:08
I took some cuttings from some rather old pelargoniums a few weeks ago (I know, maybe not the best time). some of them have now produced flower shoots. Should I remove them or let them flower?

id nip out the flowers for a few weeks until they have a good root system  hope this helps

I over wintered a trailing Pelargonium plant one year and it became huge and spreading everywhere in the greenhouse ...and it was gorgeous ! So I very carefully put it in a bigger pot with fresh compost and pushed in a nice big forked branch to support it . I put it outside on my kitchen windowsill and as it grew I wound it gently into wire that had once supported a vine on the surrounding wall . It really looked lovely .  :coffee2:
