EP176 - How to divide hardy geranium plants

On Todays 5minute Friday I will show you how to divide your Hardy Geraniums.
It is best to do this at this time of year, after flowering, which this variety has done, and we have cut it back.
By dividing the plant up, it not only gives you extra plants, but it also reinvigorates the existing plant. You can do this either, in the ground or in a container, but as we are taking them through the winter, it may be wiser to establish them in a pot, take them through the winter, then plant them out.
We divide Hardy Geraniums around every 2 to 4 years. They will take all winter to establish, but this is the best way to do this.
Geraniums are herbaceous perennials mainly, easy to grow and low maintenance. They are, once established drought and pest tolerant. With their foliage and oh so pretty blooms what's not to love about Geraniums.
