watering
Cranesbill (Geranium 'Azure Rush') should be watered weekly, or when the soil feels dry to the touch (about 1 inch deep). Because this particular species enjoys moist soil, water thoroughly until it reaches the drainage holes so that the top 2 inches of soil are moist. It is also important to avoid overwatering as this can cause root rot and other issues. It is also Recommended to water in the early morning, so that the plant can absorb the water before the heat of the day sets in.
sunlight
The cranesbill (Geranium 'Azure Rush') is a plant species that thrives in sunny, well-drained locations with at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight each day. This species prefers morning sun and late afternoon shade during the hottest times of the day. It is best to avoid extreme shade or full afternoon sun, as this can lead to stress and decline in the plant. During cooler months, the cranesbill can tolerate full sun. When caring for a cranesbill, be sure to monitor the amount of sunlight it is receiving and adjust as necessary.
pruning
Cranesbill (Geranium 'Azure Rush') should be pruned lightly at the end of the flowering season in the late summer and early fall. When pruning, remove dead and faded flower heads and also thin out overcrowded stems. Make sure to keep pruning cuts away from flower buds as this will reduce flowering. To maintain a desirable shape and size, lightly shear the entire plant after flowering is done. For a more attractive form, deadhead blooms throughout the growing season.
