I want to purchase (2) hanging geranium plants for the front of house,facing south. Do they like fertilizer?
Yes definitely fertilize once a week. You can use liquid fertilizer or they sell fertilizer that you put in once for the entire season (they are time released) Depending if they are in full sun and how hot depends how much you water. In pots, I would water every day--You don't want them to dry out completely. Also remember that when a flower blooms then dies, make sure you cut it off-- that will make it so that the energy is left to produce new blooms.
Reply:Yes they Like Fertilizer it gives them more and Stronger Blooms. I suppose Miracle Gro will do nicely as Fertilizer,use between now and September every Week. When you think it is starting to dry out put Water in it. I would say about a Pint of Water per Plant. I had Hanging Geraniums one Year very nice Plants.
