Clump size increases, ground covers cover the ground, and they hold their own in landscape schemes. Don't panic if your plant disappears over the winter. It should reappear with greater strength in the spring. All mature and acclimatized plants of geraniums and erodiums on this list can survive to 14 degrees Fahrenheit, and many to much lower temperatures, with the exception of G. canariense, G. maderense, G. palmatum, G. incanum and most of the other South African geraniums, and G. traversii, whose lower limits are about 20-25 degrees Fahrenheit, depending their location in the garden. Where known, approximate USDA hardiness zones are indicated, following the plant descriptions.
Heights listed in the Catalog are for general reference.
Soil, placement, and culture can greatly change plant size. Few if any garden pests appear to bother these plants. Some geraniums listed in the sections devoted to Shade , Ground Covers , and Borders and Bedding bloom in flushes, and blooming time can be prolonged by shearing the vegetation after the first flush of flowers.
