Set the plants in a shady spot and let them dry for a few days. This will help avoid mold or mildew during storage. Store your geraniums through winter in a paper bag or cardboard box in a cool, dry location, at about 50 to 60 degrees F.

Can you keep trailing geraniums over winter?

Geraniums only need to be kept frost free, so are very economical to overwinter in the greenhouse. However, we do recommend using a heater to ensure temperatures stay above freezing. If your heater has a thermostat, set it at 5°C or 41°F. If the stems get frosted then the plant will die and not recover!

How do you store trailing geraniums?

As the weather gets colder, you may need to keep it indoors more. The best indoor location for it will be a cool room (40 to 60 degrees at night) that receives south or east light. Put sheer curtains in the window to diffuse the light and slightly reduce the intensity of the light.
