Irrigation Bloody geraniumTenere asciutto
These plants display a pretty long period of vegetational rest. During this time it isn't necessary to water the plants. We suggest watering the The Bloody geranium every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water.

Care Bloody geranium
The Bloody geranium has a panel-like development, therefore it tends to widen very much. This plant in the summer assumes a pink colouring; it is large in size and can reach 25 cm high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter. These plants are used in rock gardens.

Adversity Bloody geranium
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.

Substrate Bloody geranium
Locate these plants in a soft and deep, very well drained soil.
