Geraniums are a favorite bedding and container plant and are grown in almost every region of the country. Over fertilization results in excessive foliage and few flowers. These plants have succulent leaves and stems and they are commonly called garden geraniums or zonal geraniums. Pinching of the shoots will promote bushiness. Plant in ordinary well-drained soil.
