The secret to lushly blooming geraniums is in complex care, which even beginners can handle.

A plant covered with flowers is the pride of any gardener. Geranium is unpretentious, but even in its case there are a number of important nuances in care.

Some flower owners face a problem: the plant stretches out a lot and does not bloom. As a result, a frail, thin and sickly geranium sits in the pot, which seems about to die.

How to make geraniums bloom

Caring for a flower consists of several actions. Experienced gardeners pinch and trim branches, shaping the bush as desired.

If the geranium is stretching upwards, it means it does not have enough light. It needs to be moved to the most illuminated place or provided with additional lighting.

Complex mineral fertilizers will help a lanky and frail plant. But they should be applied without fanaticism. In the case of any fertilizers, moderation is always important.

Geraniums are watered with warm water, which is left to stand for 24 hours near a heating battery. In summer, the watering liquid is placed in the sun.
