Re: Pelargonium cotyledonis
Plus - it's on the Green List so you can go and see it in St.Helena and if you can get a direct flight back from their hardly-used new airport, there's no need to quarantine.
I keep looking at my plant and I think it's a dead twig.

Re: Pelargonium cotyledonis
It's a rather un-Pelargonium-like flower, I must say.

Re: Pelargonium cotyledonis
Lovely plant Mike. Mine, although grows well (but slow) doesn't flower for me. Any tips on cultivation?

Re: Pelargonium cotyledonis
It’s basically a winter grower but can be opportunistic. I don’t water after the end of March and start again in September. In winter it gets the sunniest spot I can find, I water weekly and give an occasional weak feed.

Re: Pelargonium cotyledonis
That is where I might be failing then. I was advised that the plant would enjoy watering, although light, throughout summer-time as well. My plant seemed to appreciate it as was happily producing new leaves, but it did not flower. I might try it next year then.Herts Mike wrote: ↑Wed Jun 02, 2021 10:38 am It’s basically a winter grower but can be opportunistic. I don’t water after the end of March and start again in September.
