How to grow
To sow geranium seeds, start indoors 8 - 10 weeks before the last frost date is expected. Use starter trays and a good free-draining seed sowing mix, and press the seeds into the mix, covering no more than 1/8 inch. Moisten the flower seeds and seal the tray in a plastic bag or cover with a piece of glass to keep humidity and temperatures more consistent.
Wait about 5 - 6 weeks after sowing these flower seeds then transplant seedlings into three to four inch pots. After the danger of frost has gone away, gradually acclimatize the small seedlings to the great outdoors for 10 - 15 days before planting the seedlings directly outdoors.
