Geraniums are so useful to have around the garden :o)

I love this one. It took a while to get going here too but now self seeds about quite freely :o))

Annella ... when they self-seed, do they grow and flower quite quickly ?

22 Jun, 2012

 

Yes they do TT. I suppose when they find their own spot they are happy.

My geraniums are all quite new ... I must watch for seedlings :o)

22 Jun, 2012

 

I've had this one for years now, it took me a while to recognise the seedlings.

Do the second pairs of leaves on the seedlings have the leaf shape of the adult ?

22 Jun, 2012

 

Yes and they stand more chance with the weather at the moment, no chance of weeding out there!

Some of my new smaller geraniums are growing among pebbles, gravel and stones, so, yes, I expect the rain is encouraging lots of babies to grow up in the gaps between. I'll keep a look out ! :o)

I got some only last year out of my daughters new garden, I find it does better in the sun although its coming along nicely now even in the shady border..

One of my all-time faves, Denise, pretty flowers and autumn colour on the leaves: fantastic!
