hardy geranium

This variety of hardy geranium is a drought-tolerant perennial that enjoys moist but well-drained soil. It does not require frequent watering, but should be watered regularly to keep the soil evenly moist. During the spring and summer, water the geraniums once a week, providing enough water to moisten the soil down to a depth of 6 inches. Cut back on watering in the fall and winter to about every 2 weeks or so.

Hardy geranium (Geranium sanguineum 'Album') should be planted in locations that receive full sun in the morning, with partial shade in the afternoon. This plant species is native to much of Europe and is well adapted to growing in the sun. It prefers consistently moist soil and does best when planted in sheltered spots to protect it from strong wind and hot, afternoon sun. For optimal health, it should receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day.

Hardy Geranium (Geranium sanguineum 'Album') is an easy to care for plant that requires minimal pruning. Generally, pruning can be done in late spring, after the plant has flowered, to keep the plant looking its best. Cutting back the stems to promote bushier growth and removing any dead or diseased growth is recommended. It's important to use clean, sharp pruning shears and to make cuts close to the base of the stem. Pruning should be done when the plant is actively growing and before the colder weather sets in.
