Description
Regal geraniums are often called Martha Washington’s, the name of a once famous cultivar. The plants aren’t at all difficult to keep alive, but it can be challenging to get them to re-bloom well. The key is to follow a special seasonal rhythm of care. In early summer after flowering stops, cut plants back to about 4”, repot them and allow them to rest inside for a month. Give them enough water to keep them alive, but wait until midsummer to begin feeding them. When nights cool to below 55°F in fall, place plants outdoors for at least 6 weeks. Plants use this cool period to develop buds, which may not show until midwinter. Look for large flower clusters in February or March.
