Have you ever walked into someone’s house & just wanted to prune their plants? Are you raising your hand on this one too? It happens to me quite often & most times I keep my mouth shut & my Felcos in their holster.
I was visiting my cousin in Connecticut this past August & couldn’t resist hinting at how much space her plant was taking up in her kitchen dining area along with another one in the sunroom. She agreed wholeheartedly & into action I sprung to prune the leggy, overgrown geraniums.
Both she & I got the gene for appreciating beautiful plants & flowers but only I got the one for pruning. Amazingly, these 2 behemoth geraniums didn’t have mealybugs, aphids or spider mites. Technically these plants are both pelargoniums but most call them geraniums & they’re usually sold under that name, along with the scented geraniums & the zonal geraniums.
True geraniums have thin stems & many are cold hardy whereas whereas the pelargoniums have thicker, fleshy stems & are tender and will freeze in colder climates. The pelargoniums tend to have much showier flowers.
These geraniums grow indoors as houseplants so I didn’t give them the total cut back. The same pruning technique would apply if you’re bringing yours indoors for the colder months & going to place them in sunny spots. If they’re going in your garage or cellar, then you can give them even more of a cutback.
