Default geraniums

"jayne" wrote in message

I am a resident of Spain, Cost Blanca, a very mild climate. I love
geraniums but am not sure how to prune them in this climate. Obviously
frost is not an issue. Does anyone know if my geraniums will continue
to flower all year and what I ought to be feeding them. Also I have
seen yellow and blue geraniums on sale by a dutch company but only
available for delivery in UK. Anyone know if anyone delivers to Spain?


I feed mine with tomato food, the sort that is dissolved in a watering can.
I prune mine in a couple of ways. After they flower I will sometimes cut
back to above a leaf axil if they are getting too long and sometimes I just
pinch the tip out of a stem.
