cranesbill

It is important to water Cranesbill (Geranium 'Johnson's Blue') regularly, as they enjoy moisture in the soil and cannot survive in overly dry conditions. Generally, it should be watered approximately once a week, and watered deeply. The soil should feel moist but not drenched when touched. Do not water the plant if the soil feels damp or wet; instead, allow it to dry out a bit before watering again. Make sure to only water in the morning to allow plenty of time for the water to dry out before evening. If the temperature is very hot, water the plant more frequently, ensuring the soil doesn't dry out.

Cranesbill (Geranium ‘Johnson’s Blue’) is an easy-to-grow plant that requires plenty of sunlight to thrive. It should be placed in a location that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day from the spring to the fall months. During the winter months, 2 to 4 hours of indirect or filtered sunlight is adequate. During the hottest part of the day, usually mid-morning through mid-afternoon, plants should be provided some shade, as strong, direct sunlight can burn their foliage.

The Cranesbill (Geranium Johnson's Blue) is a perennial that grows 6-12 inches tall and should be pruned in the late winter or early spring before it begins to grow in the spring. The flower buds of the Cranesbill should be cut back to only a couple of inches below the previous year's blooms. The stems can be cut down to the ground, but without cutting too much of the foliage as the leaves are essential for photosynthesis. Pruning will help promote healthy regrowth, and should not be done more than once a year.
