It has grown big and wide the mosquito shocker pelargonia. Thinking about how to save it for next year – if at all possible. Saving pelargonias over winter, indoors, is always a problem and doesn’t always work. It is too warm inside and winters get too dark. With this one, which was three very tiny plants in May, I also need to reduce its size before moving it inside. I don’t have that much space inside and there are other pelargonias that I also want to save for next year. It is the wrong season to cut this down now, but I have no choice. Will have to reduce it in size. It never got any flowers by the way though the warm and sunny summer we have had should have been ideal for pelargonias. Googling it, it is supposed to get small lilac flowers. It will soon be too cold for pelargonias outside so I doubt there will be any flowers this year.
