Rose Geranium - Live Plant Frequently Asked Questions

Is Rose Geranium an annual or perennial plant?

Rose Geranium (Pelargonium graveolens) is a perennial plant. With proper care, it can continue to grow and bloom year after year, making it a long-lasting addition to your garden or indoor space.

How much space should be needed to grow Rose Geranium?

For indoor cultivation in a pot, a Rose Geranium plant typically requires a container that is at least 8 to 12 inches in diameter to allow for proper root growth and ample space for the plant to flourish. If you're growing Rose Geranium outdoors in a garden bed or border, space each plant about 12 to 18 inches apart to give them room to spread and thrive.

What zone does Rose Geranium grow in?

Rose Geranium typically grows well in USDA hardiness zones 10 through 11, although it can also be grown as an annual or brought indoors as a potted plant in colder climates.

When should I harvest Rose Geranium?

Harvest Rose Geranium in the morning after the dew has dried but before the sun becomes too intense. This is when the plant's essential oils are most concentrated. It is crucial to wait until your plant is mature and has developed a good amount of healthy leaves and flowers.

Does Rose Geranium flower or fruit?

Rose Geranium is primarily grown for its aromatic foliage and attractive flowers rather than for fruit production. While it does produce clusters of small, delicate flowers in shades of pink, lavender, or white, these flowers are not followed by the development of fruit.
