This popular ornamental, renowned for its double-petaled flowers resembling rosebuds, thrives when properly maintained. For pelargoniums 'Apple Blossom Rosebud', deadheading encourages prolonged blooming by removing spent flowers. Light pruning in late spring enhances shape and promotes healthy foliage. Cutting back up to one-third in the fall rejuvenates growth. Avoid heavy winter pruning to prevent stress. Regular snipping boosts air circulation, curbing disease risks, and ensures compact, floriferous displays.
