FAQs

What is the best position for Geranium Zonal White Splash?

They thrive in a sunny position. This will encourage the most prolific flowering and vibrant color.

How often should I water these geraniums?

Water regularly, allowing the top layer of compost to dry out slightly between waterings. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Do I need to feed these plants?

Yes, a light feed every couple of weeks during the growing season will help maintain their vibrant display and encourage continuous blooming.

What does 'spattered with pink' mean for the blooms?

The primary color of the blooms is crisp white, with individual pink marks or speckles appearing on the petals.

Can I leave these plants out in winter?

Geraniums are generally not frost-tolerant and are often treated as annuals in colder climates. It's best to protect them from frost or replant each year.

Why might my live plant look different from the picture?

Live plants are unique and vary naturally. Depending on the season, they may also be pruned back to encourage healthy new growth or may arrive without leaves if deciduous.

How do I deadhead geraniums?

Simply pinch or snip off the spent flower stem just above a set of leaves. This encourages the plant to produce new flower buds instead of setting seed.

Troubleshooting

Yellowing leaves

This can be caused by overwatering, underwatering, or lack of nutrients. Check soil moisture and ensure regular feeding.

Few or no flowers

Ensure the plant is in a sunny location and has been regularly deadheaded. A light feed can also encourage blooming.

Leggy growth

Prune back leggy stems to encourage bushier growth. Ensure adequate sunlight.

Pest infestation (e.g., aphids)

Wipe away pests with a damp cloth or use an insecticidal soap, following product instructions.
