Geranium wallichianum I like the article

Exposure Geranium wallichianumPosizione mezza ombra
These plants don't fear the cold weather and therefore can be grown in the garden during any time of year. Perennial plants mainly have a spring and summer development. During the coldest months of the year the aerial part can completely dry out, to come up the year after.For a balanced development, it is best to position the The Geranium wallichianum in a partially shady place, where it can enjoy direct sunlight only during the coolest hours of the day.

Generalities Geranium wallichianum
These plants are perennial herbs. This plant in the summer assumes a blue colouring; it is small in size and can reach 45 cm high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter. The Geranium wallichianum has a panel-like development, therefore it tends to widen very much.

Fertilization Geranium wallichianum
In the spring let’s fertilize perennials periodically, using a specific fertilizer for flowering plants, to add to the irrigating water, every 20-25 days; or we can spread a slow release fertilizer near the plants every 3-4 months.

Watering Geranium wallichianumTenere asciutto
Let’s avoid watering the The Geranium wallichianum excessively, always leaving the soil dry for a few days between one watering and the other, therefore let’s irrigate the substratum deeply every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water . These plants display a pretty long period of vegetational rest. During this time it isn't necessary to water the plants.

Treatments Geranium wallichianum
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.

Soil Geranium wallichianum
Locate these plants in a soft and deep, very well drained soil.
