Slips are no problem; they take really well. We just break off a stem
and stick into some potting soil, at any time. By the colder parts of
fall or winter there is a good vigorous plant for every slip and it's
easy to move pots inside when there's going to be a killing frost and
then back outside on milder days. Geraniums love that time of year
more than the summer.
