This article will discuss a beautiful and very unpretentious plant. Such characteristics make it an ideal choice for beginner gardeners.
However, there is no point in wasting time: the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh advises to start sowing already in December, because we are talking about pelargonium.
Yes, yes, this is the plant that has been a favorite among gardeners for decades.
Perhaps you even remember the pots of fragrant pelargoniums on the windowsills of your mothers and grandmothers.
Some varieties of this flower are so beautiful that they can surpass all other annual flowers, including petunias, which have recently become a very common option for summer cottages.
What is remarkable is that pelargonium does not require complex care.
This flower is drought-resistant, and all it needs for its development is a sunny area with loose, fertile soil.
Pelargonium of two types can be grown from seeds: zonal and ivy-leaved. Zonal forms neat bushes with luxurious flowers, reaching a height of 20 to 35 cm. Ivy-leaved grows in the form of a dense green ball, strewn with flowers, and looks especially beautiful in hanging pots.
