The vibrant flowers in the image are Potted Geraniums (Pelargoniums), known for their bright red, pink, purple, and white blooms. These hardy and beautiful flowers are ideal for balconies, patios, and container gardens, making them a top choice for colorful potted plants.
🪴 Geranium Care Tips for Potted Displays:
- Soil: Use a light, well-draining potting mix to prevent waterlogging.
- Light: Place your pots where they’ll receive at least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight daily.
- Watering: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering. Reduce watering in cooler months.
- Fertilizing: Feed with a liquid fertilizer every 2 weeks during the growing season for more blooms.
🌼 How to Keep Potted Geraniums Blooming:
- Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage new growth.
- Pinch back stems to maintain compact, bushy plants.
- Rotate pots occasionally to ensure even growth.
