# How to Keep Your Geraniums Bursting with Flowers: The Secret Watering Method

Geraniums are among the most beloved flowering plants for gardens and patios, thanks to their vibrant colors and long-lasting blooms. But anyone who has tried growing geraniums knows that getting them to thrive with a profusion of flowers isn’t always easy. The secret to keeping geraniums full of blossoms lies largely in how—and when—you water them.

If you want your geraniums to stay lush, healthy, and constantly blooming, here’s the watering technique that will make all the difference.

## Why Proper Watering Matters for Geraniums

Geraniums are moderately drought-tolerant plants, but inconsistent or excessive watering can cause problems. Too much water leads to root rot and fewer flowers, while too little water stresses the plant, causing it to wilt and drop buds.

The goal is to keep the soil moist but well-drained, encouraging strong root growth without waterlogging.

## The Best Way to Water Geraniums for Maximum Blooms

### 1. Water Deeply but Infrequently
