Coconut Geraniums

Posted by Carletta 9 TX (My Page) on

I got seed for this at a plant swap last fall and it came up quite well. I am enjoying the plants which I have just kept in small pots. They have not bloomed yet but I assume they do, because otherwise they wouldn't made seed. How should I treat these this winter? If I put them in larger pots, will they eventually get larger? And bloom? Our temperatures rarely get below freezing so I think/hope they would be all right kept outside.

RE: Coconut Geraniums

Coconut scented is what you have I think? They are very easy and do bloom but the flower is kind of plain. They set seed easily.
In my experience scenteds want to come indoors when the weather is around 40 degrees at night. I carry mine in and out everyday at this time of year. Sometimes I forget to bring them in and if you happen by my yard at night you might see me dragging them in in my robe and slippers.
