Geraniums

Sow geranium seeds under cover January to March in John Innes Seed Sowing Compost.

Harden off throughout May and plant out once all risk of frost has passed.

Plant out in well drained soil in a sunny or lightly shaded spot. Incorporate organic matter such as organic Farmyard Manure or Soil Conditioner first to improve soil structure and boots nutrient levels or add Multi-Purpose Compost with added John Innes to planting holes.

Alternatively use in containers and hanging baskets using West+ Container & Basket Compost.

Feed throughout the season with Nutri Plant feed or All Purpose Soluble plant food. If growing in containers mix Feed All Slow Release granules or tablets into the compost when planting.

Dead head regularly to encourage prolonged flowering.

Protect from slug damage using Eraza Slug and Snail Killer or Earth Matters Slug Blocker Gel if grown in pots.
