The pelargoniums genus, often called geraniums, enjoys bright light, moderately moist soil, and temperatures between 65-70°F (18-21℃). Its main requirements are well-draining soil and infrequent, deep watering rather than regular shallow watering. Common challenges consist of pests like aphids and whiteflies, as well as leaf spot and stem rot diseases. During summer, these plants appreciate some afternoon shade and increased watering frequency. In winter, they require reduced watering and protection from frost. Throughout the year, pelargoniumss benefit from regular deadheading to promote blooms.
