Cultivation of geranium
Geranium plants can be grown quickly anywhere. However, sandy loam soil is considered better for this. There is no need to water this plant daily. That is, it can be cultivated where there is less rain. Every type of climate is considered suitable for its cultivation. However, a mild climate with low humidity is best for its good yield. Farmers can easily earn good profits by cultivating it.
