Planting and Growing Information
Plant Geranium 'Johnson's Blue' in full sun to partial shade locations for optimal flowering. This adaptable perennial performs well in USDA hardiness zones 4-8 and prefers moist, well-drained soil, though it tolerates a range of soil conditions once established. For best results, space plants 18-24 inches apart to allow for mature spread. After the initial flush of blooms, shear back foliage by one-third to encourage fresh growth and additional flowering. Division every 3-4 years helps maintain plant vigor and control spread.
