Pelargonium ivy-leaved

Pelargonium ivy belongs to the Geraniaceae family; among ordinary flower lovers it is better known as “geranium”. In some editions the name “thyroid pelargonium” appears.

Pelargonium is familiar to every gardener

The birthplace of the flower is South Africa. The name of the plant comes from the word “pelargos”, which means crane in Greek. Indeed, the pistil style, which has grown in length after pollination, resembles the beak of a crane.

Description of appearance

This is a perennial plant with large leaves of rich green color and umbels of flowers of various shapes and colors.

Unlike other species, ivy-leaved pelargonium has creeping shoots, and the leaves do not have the pubescence characteristic of this genus. The shoots hang down as they grow and the plant takes on an ampelous appearance.

The flowers are collected in inflorescences - umbrellas with long pedicels. The variety of varieties of this plant implies a large number of variations in color and shape of flowers. They can be purple, white or even variegated, such as pelargonium roulette.

For reference! The shape of the flowers is regular, semi-double and double.

Description and characteristics of cultivation

Interestingly, among all the variety of varieties, it is dwarf geranium that is becoming increasingly popular. It has many advantages. For example, such a plant will take its rightful place on the windowsill and fit perfectly into any of your flower collections.

It is grown in a compact pot, since the flower is very miniature. Nevertheless, its small dimensions do not prevent it from blooming magnificently. Another important advantage of this group of geraniums is that formative pruning of such a flower specimen is not necessary at all.

Caring for dwarf pelargonium varieties at home is not too labor-intensive; even a beginner can handle it. However, take some recommendations into account so as not to harm your indoor flowers. For example, like most geraniums, dwarf pelargonium does not like waterlogged soil - it will cause the rhizome to rot before you even blink an eye. That's why remember two things:

  • The plant substrate should be moistened in moderation;
  • The soil must contain sand or vermiculite. Such components are useful because they absorb excess moisture, and you do not have to correct the consequences of waterlogging the soil.

You will certainly be able to care for low-growing varieties of pelargonium. Over time, many gardeners begin to expand their collection of dwarf geraniums. This can be done easily and at home, no extra costs will be required.

How are these flowers propagated? It is best to start this procedure at the end of February or early March. It is during this period that the plant gradually comes to its senses after wintering, and its vital processes are activated. First of all, cut the cutting with two internodes, and then dry it thoroughly.

The next stage is planting in nutrient soil. It is not recommended to cover the top of the cutting with glass or film - this will only create an excessively humid environment for the geranium, which can have a detrimental effect on it. Miniature cuttings of pelargonium will very quickly take root in a new place. The main thing is to place the pot with the shoots in a well-lit place. Under favorable conditions, within a month you will receive a fully rooted plant.

Pelargonium ivy - home care

Pelargonium April Snow - growing geraniums

To ensure that pelargonium blooms lushly and leaves and shoots are healthy, you need to properly care for this flower. There are certain growing conditions and rules for caring for this plant.

LightThis African beauty prefers sunny windowsills, preferably facing south. When planting in open ground for the summer, it is better to choose a place in partial shade or illuminated in the first half of the day.
TemperatureIn summer, the flower feels great at a temperature of 19-23 degrees. In winter, it is better to reduce these indicators by 4-6 degrees.
WateringIn summer, during flowering, it is necessary to water regularly and abundantly. Care should be taken to avoid getting moisture on the leaves when watering. Excess water from the pan should be removed.
HumidityNormal room conditions are quite suitable for pelargonium. It does not need spraying; it is destructive for this flower.
FeedingDuring the period of active growth and flowering, it is necessary to regularly fertilize. You can purchase ready-made fertilizer for pelargoniums at the garden center. In winter, fertilizing is stopped.
The soilYou need nutritious soil that conducts air and moisture well. Ready-made soil containing peat and nutrients is ideal.
Container sizeThe root system of pelargonium is very developed. The tendency to rapid growth concerns not only the vegetative part, but also the roots. The pot should be several centimeters in diameter larger than the volume of the root system.
TrimmingTo stimulate branching of shoots, pinch the tops. This allows you to achieve greater bushiness and thickening. It is also necessary to remove faded inflorescences to activate the formation of new ones.
TransferThe plant needs regular replanting. It is necessary due to the growth of the root system and soil depletion. Replanting is carried out with a complete replacement of the soil into a larger container.

Ivy geranium responds very well to planting in open ground for the summer. Care and reproduction in such conditions remains the same as in indoor conditions. Unless it is necessary to reduce watering if rain is forecast or has occurred.


Pelargonium grows well outdoors

Attention! Pots with pelargonium should be brought indoors before the temperature at night drops to 10-12 degrees. Otherwise, the acclimatization process will be painful and long.

Flower passion.

I love all living plants. I see a highlight in each of them. But my strongest flower passion in recent years has been pelargoniums.

Dear readers, at the moment I have a small but amazingly beautiful collection of unusually blooming pelargoniums. I have “Rosebud” - pelargoniums blooming with roses, Tulip - blooming with tulips, asters, carnations, one variety - peonies. There are several fragrant varieties, with the scent of rose, lemon, wormwood, peach, and apple. And I want to share all this wealth with you.

Description of the species

Ivy-leaved pelargonium “arrived” to us from South Africa. Its numerous varieties are now common on many continents and are highly respected by flower growers. If the flower is planted in a flowerpot, it can be used as decoration for loggias and balconies.

The plant owes its name to its five-lobed leathery leaves, which are very similar to ivy foliage. Pelargonium of this species has very strong shoots - they can cling to rocky ledges and climb up, thus ensuring the sowing of their seeds. The stem can reach a length of 1 m.

The inflorescences of the crop are shaped like umbrellas and contain from 6 to 15 flowers. The plant can have both plain flowers and those decorated with spots, stripes and even a border.
