Growth of Geranium Moonlight ‘Sembalo’
The momentum of Geranium Moonlight “Senbaro” is unstoppable.
I bought it in November and thought it wouldn’t bloom in winter, but it’s putting up buds one after another.
At first it looked like this. I planted it in a size 6 unglazed pot.

This has happened in 4 months.
It’s my first time growing geraniums and I don’t know much about them, but I’m surprised at how strong they are.
A lot of buds and buds come out from the armpits and bottom, and it grows thick and does not grow.
I hardly ever come across any damaged leaves, and it’s very tough.
If you write down the management method as a memo, during the winter,
If it’s warm on the balcony or not cold, I take it outside during the day and bring it into the house when the sun goes down.
Come to think of it, on a day when the maximum temperature was around 5 degrees Celsius, it was sunny and there was no wind, so I took it outside.
Both the blooming buds and the reserve buds have withered, so with temperatures like that, I can keep them in the house during the day.
I water it when the soil surface dries out, and now I water it about once every two to three days.
I don’t want to feed it too much because it’s winter, but it blooms so much that I fertilized it once.
Did you give it liquid fertilizer at least once?
As the tag says, it is really strong, easy to grow, and doesn’t have much odor, so I recommend it.
We plan to continue growing and growing.
Before that, repot it into a slightly larger pot.
I want to enjoy spring and summer as much as possible.
