General Information:
Geranium Rozanne prefers compost-enriched soil that stays moist. Easy to grow clump-forming geranium. *Note* Several people have reported that flower color can be "off" as the plant re-acclimates to a new setting. The blue color should reliably appear on new growth.
Plant Care:
Snip off spent flowering stems at the base or shear tops back to new growth to stimulate rebloom and freshen foliage. Generally does not need division but can be divided in spring or fall if desired.
