Default Pot plants


"Margret" no wrote in message ...
Was having an argument about pot plants!!! I saw some beautiful pots
containing flowering tulips, hyacinths, jonquils etc.; but decided to buy
good ol' geraniums instead. My family said I was mad, as the geraniums did
not look nearly as impressive; but I reckon they will flower for months,
instead of just a few weeks. What would you have bought?

You are right. The geraniums will flower for yonks, especially if you keep
dead heading them. As soon as the flowers on a cluster start to look ragged,
remove that cluster. It seems brutal, but works a treat.
