Planting & Care
Sow Mrs. Kendall Clark Geranium seeds indoors in late winter or early spring. Press seeds lightly into the surface of a moist, well-drained seed-starting mix, as light aids germination. Keep the medium consistently moist but not soggy, and maintain a temperature around 65 to 70°F. Germination can be slow and uneven; patience is often required. Once seedlings have several true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and harden them off before moving outdoors after the last frost.
In the garden, choose a site with well-drained soil and partial to full sun. Water regularly during the first growing season to help plants establish. Once established, Mrs. Kendall Clark Geranium is relatively low-maintenance; remove spent flowers to encourage reblooming and cut back tired foliage in late summer to promote fresh growth. Divide clumps every few years to maintain vigor.
