Zogie gave me this little geranium. He had ordered seeds and they were sent too late for him to have big enough to sell. I was spending some bucks so he gave me one free. He often has things for free for me. He says this one will have a pink/peach bloom. It will survive inside in the winter. It needs a bigger pot.
I took some starts that I had in water and some I had potted to give to him today. I also took a big potted plant that needs a new home. He will repot it and give me my pot back.
I am finally having some summer fun.

I think that geraniums are lovely. They are hardy and have a nice bloom. Nice to get those freebies too.

Yes, geraniums are durable plants I have not had one in a while.

Must have gotten quite cold as they can survive down to about 28 F. I wish you could have been able to save some.

@GardenGerty The last couple of years we have had several fronts with temps as low as 12 F. It's crazy! In my life I only remember low 20's up until the last 10 years!

That's so nice of Zogie to give you the little geranium! It sounds like you both have a great gardening relationship, exchanging plants and pots. Summer fun in the garden is the best. Enjoy watching your new plant grow and bloom!

I put it in a bigger, pretty pot. I am anxious to see how fast it grows.

Yes, he will keep the monstera that needed repotting and I gave him things that he can either keep or share.

Red geraniums are very striking. Especially when planted in huge numbers.

I think I got my first plant from my grandmother when I was around 6 or 7.
