Fortunately, geranium plants require little care, once established. They prefer full sun and a well-drained, moderately rich soil. They can handle partial shade, but become more prone to mildew if kept damp. These plants are easy to grow from geranium seeds indoors in late winter. Once the plants are established, they will bloom all summer and can be wintered over indoors or in a greenhouse.

To sow geranium seeds, it is best to start indoors 8 - 10 weeks before the last frost date is expected. Use starter trays and a good free-draining seed sowing mix, and press the fresh seeds into the mix, ensuring not to cover the seeds by more than 1/8 inch. Moisten the flower seeds and seal the tray in a plastic bag or cover with a piece of glass to keep humidity and temperatures more consistent. In just a short five to six weeks after sowing the seeds, transplant these young seedlings into small pots. Once frost season is over in your area and temperatures are climbing, gradually acclimate the seedlings to outdoor conditions for 10 - 15 days before finding the perfect location to plant your geraniums outdoors. Proper care includes using a liquid fertilizer when needed (usually about once a month), providing proper moisture for the plants, and deadheading old flowers to keep new buds appearing.
