Geranium Plant Brought Into House

In the fall bring the geranium plant(s) into the house and put in a sunny location. By doing this you can propagate new plants throughout the winter months in preparation for spring.

STEP 1: With a sharp knife cut off the tender, new growth from the geranium plant about 2 - 4 inches in length.
