Pelargonium grandiflorum 'Don Flamingo' (muscate englezesti)
Pelargonium grandiflorum, also known as large-flowered geranium or English geranium, is a charming plant that finds its perfect place in the homes of plant lovers.
The original name refers to the size of the flowers, being a variety with large and brightly colored blooms, often even two-toned.
Grandiflora geraniums bloom abundantly from spring until late autumn, until the first frost. The flowering period can be extended by bringing the plants indoors when temperatures begin to drop.
Light and placement: English geraniums love light! Make sure the plant receives plenty of light, but avoid direct and prolonged exposure to midday sun, which can burn the leaves. A spot with morning sun or filtered light throughout the day is ideal.
Watering: Pelargonium grandiflorum prefers regular watering, but it is important to let the soil dry out a little between waterings. Avoid letting water stagnate at the base of the plant to prevent root rot. On hot summer days, you may need to water more often, but reduce watering frequency in winter.
Temperature and humidity: This geranium enjoys moderate to warm temperatures during the day and somewhat cooler at night. Avoid exposure to temperatures below 10°C, as cold can be harmful. It does not require specific humidity, being quite adaptable in this regard.
Fertilizer: To encourage abundant flowering, fertilize the plant once a month during the active growing period (spring-summer) with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer intended for flowering plants.
