The cultivation of pelargonium

a characteristic shared by all pelargonium is to be sensitive to 'water. I do not want much, do require 180-200ml for a jar of 15 - 16 cm , suffer too much more for water than for a lack of it, the watering should be done here nd the soil is dry, never take water on the soil wet and never leave water to stagnate in the saucer so the plant continues to store water and eventually rot. The varieties with variegated leaves are the first to perish, because they are more sensitive than others to excess moisture. You have to let the soil dry before you water again. In the summer, helping plants to overcome the heat you should reduce watering and should be watered early in the morning, or better, if you can, at dusk. If you water the plants during the hottest hours boil and burn wet leaves. Should behave exactly the opposite in winter, the water gives during the hours of noon. It 'best to use a watering can in the long beak.
