bought and planted this after some lovely geranium rozanne last year which crept beautifully to create a carpet of flowers. This one looks stringy and sad! What do I do?image

    I would cut the flower off and allow the plant to settle in further. Check to see there is no vine weevil about.

    I have Patricia, it's taken 2 years to settle properly but I reckon it'll take another year to get to its full potential and I have the perfect conditions for it.

    Thanks lady bird I did lop off the traily flower shoot down to the first node. None of the other shoots seem to have branched yet. My Rozannea got enormous so quickly I suppose I was expecting the same. I will just have to be patient!
