How to keep Pelargonium Dolomiticum.
Water
To check the soil moisture for pelargonium dolomiticum, simply stick your finger into the soil. Water the plant if the top 0.8 inches feel dry. In spring and fall, water the plant thoroughly, making sure to allow for proper drainage. During summer and winter, use minimal water and apply it along the edge of the pot. Soft, slightly acidic water is best; if needed, you can use stored tap water.
Pruning
Pelargonium dolomiticum features fragrant leaves and vibrant flowers. To promote bushy growth, prune the plant in early spring and be sure to remove any dead wood. Trim just above the leaf nodes to encourage flowering. Regular annual pruning not only helps the plant maintain its shape and vigor but also enhances its health and reduces the risk of pests.
