I have flirted with geraniums for several decades but never achieved the full satisfaction of a great display. Now I have a new plan to dedicate an area in the garden, dare I call it a zone? to some of these colourful plants. To give me an incentive to dedicate time and effort I have given it a name Pelargonia as I thought Geraniumistan was going to confuse the issue with cranesbill geranium or hardy geraniums.<\/span><\/p>\n

As you can see from the search link I have blogged on 67 occasions about pelargoniums and geraniums over the Gardeners Tips years<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Frost Tender Pelargoniums<\/h3>\n

  1. After several good years I got careless one weekend and lost some good growth and suffered several set backs after an air frost. A similar event took place 6 years ago and that was at the beginning of June.<\/li>\n
  2. Remember if your pelargonium stems get frosted then the plant will die and not recover!<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  3. In the North of England there can be frosts late in May and early June. In Scotland and on high ground keep your thermometer handy whenever frost is threatened.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
