Geranium

The Geranium family includes the genus Pelargonium and the related Cranesbills (Sanguineum). There are approximately 400 species of annual, biennial, and perennial plants that are named Geraniums. The Geranium originated in South Africa and came to the European continent in the 1600s and has been propagated and hybridized ever since.

The Geranium family includes Zonal Geraniums, Ivy Geraniums, Regal Geraniums, and Scented Geraniums. Nature Hills Nursery has a wide range of hardy perennial Geranium and hybrid Geranium available!

The popularity of hardy Geraniums is because of their long season of interest, along with their pretty flowers, most have beautiful foliage!

Look through our helpful Garden Blog on Geranium, or check out these popular categories:

Hardy Cranesbills typically have white, purple, and pink flowers with 5 petals and a flush of low-growing heavily incised cut-leafed leaves in dark green.

How To Use Geranium In Your Garden

The long-lasting blooms are a butterfly and bee favorite! Plant these low-growing perennials in your front of the garden borders, lining the pathway and stairway sides, and edging landscaping beds in long-lasting color!

In a more utilitarian sense, Groundcover Cranesbill are ideal erosion control perennials, stabilizing soil in hot, dry, sunny banks, and slopes, and transforming a hard-to-mow hillside into a cheerful display! Geranium is a must-have for facer plantings, edging, and coverage that rambles beautifully and fully to block weeds, act as living mulch and add that special finishing touch to the garden design.

These Perennial Geraniums won't get into trouble by climbing into shrubs or smothering smaller perennials, so plant them between your other plants without worry!

Hardy enough for the Rock Garden or over the tops of retaining walls. Xeric Gardens, that hell strip along the road, or create mass drifts of pink and green where parched sun-drenched poor soil once lay! Commercial landscapers take note of this hard-working little perennial! Fill that harsh strip of ground along sidewalks and driveways with tall waving wands.

Add some low-growing flowering accents to Cottage Gardens, Pollinator Borders, and mixed Perennial gardens. The foliage looks great in floral design, and these brilliant spillers will add a decorative touch to mixed containers or act as fillers and living mulch around a tall tree or shrub in a specimen planter!

Caring For Geranium

infographic

Most Geranium plants will produce more flowers if planted in a sunny position. Geraniums will grow in partial shade, but flowering may be reduced. Geraniums prefer well-drained soil and are not particular about soil type as long as it is well-drained.

Get your new Geranium off on the right foot with these simple tips, planting advice in our #ProPlantTips, and with Nature Hills Root Booster!

  • Does Cranesbill like sun or shade? Geraniums need full sun and partial shade to do best
  • These Perennials do best in well-drained soil
  • Create raised gardens or berms if you have poor drainage.
  • Check out the Plants Description for pruning and other care requirements
  • Water new plants regularly using the Finger Test to help them get established

Geraniums are not heavy users of fertilizer. Apply a light amount of 20-20-20 twice during the growing season. Over-fertilization may cause the Geranium to not bloom.

Do Cranesbills bloom all summer?

Cranesbills are one of the best varieties that will flower continuously all summer long! Do Cranesbill Geraniums need to be deadheaded? No, but as with most flowering perennials, if you do shear them back or deadhead after the first round of flowers fade, you'll get a larger rebloom.

Do Cranesbill Geraniums spread?

Spreading by underground fleshy roots, the Geraniums mounds of cut-leaf greenery can cover the ground fast.

Do you cut back Geranium Cranesbill in the fall?

Some types of Cranesbill are evergreen, especially in mild winters or warmer growing zones. You can cut Geranium back in the spring in these areas, but in cooler climates, you can trim back the entire plant in late autumn for a cleaner winter appearance. Just be sure to cover the area in compost or a few inches of mulch to protect the crowns and fleshy roots from cold.
