hardy geranium

For a hardy geranium (Geranium oxonianum 'Wargrave Pink'), watering should be done once every 1-2 weeks, depending on the season. During the summer months (April to September) you should water the plant deeply and regularly, ensuring that the soil is evenly moist. In winter (October to March), water less frequently, allowing the soil to dry out between each watering. Make sure not to over-water as this can harm or even kill the plant.

Hardy geraniums (Geranium oxonianum 'Wargrave Pink') prefer to have about 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day, but can tolerate partial shade. Full sun is best in the morning, with shade late in the day, to protect the plants from excessive temperatures. If grown in full sun, the plants will need more water and may need to be planted in a spot that gets afternoon shade. For the best color, performance, and flowering, it is best for the plant to receive direct sun in the morning and partial shade in the afternoon.

Hardy geranium (Geranium oxonianum 'Wargrave Pink') should be pruned once a year after it has flowered, around late summer to early fall. Pruning will encourage a bushier and more vibrant display of blooms as well as help keep the plant in a healthy and attractive shape. When pruning, it is important to selectively remove the stems that have already flowered along with any that appear old, woody, and unproductive. Stick to the general rule of removing about 1-third of the length of each stem. This will help stimulate new growth as well as maintain an attractive overall form.
