Geranium phaeum

Geranium phaeum I like the article

Exposure Geranium phaeumPosizione ombreggiata
These plants lose the aerial part during the coldest months of the year. As spring begins, stems and leaves quickly start to reproduce. Position the The Geranium phaeum in a place where it can enjoy a few hours of exposure to direct sunlight, but only during the coolest periods of the day.The Geranium phaeum should be grown outdoors; it can bear very harsh temperatures without any problems, even many degrees below zero.

Fertilization Geranium phaeum
We suggest adding to the irrigation water, in the spring, every 20-25 days, a specific fertilizer for flowering plants. We can also mix to the soil near the plants a granular slow release fertilizer, which has a 3-4 month action.

Generalities Geranium phaeum
These plants grow covering the whole land at their disposal. The Geranium phaeum is a perennial herb plant. The Geranium phaeum is large in size and 75 cm in height; in the spring it assumes a purple colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year.

Watering Geranium phaeumTenere asciutto
Water rarely, about once every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , keeping the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when wetting we suggest avoiding surpluses, however to wet the soil deep down. Perennial plants are subject to some months of vegetational rest. During these months it isn't necessary to water them.

Treatments Geranium phaeum
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.

Soil Geranium phaeum
We suggest a substratum characterized by an excellent drainage.
