What is the plant
Pelargonium is a genus of flowering plants which includes about 200 species of perennials, succulents, and shrubs, commonly known as geraniums, pelargoniums, or storksbills.

How to Care for the Plant
Water
It's best to water Regal pelargonium twice per week, straight onto the soil, not on the plant itself. Check the soil frequently for dryness, particularly under the surface. Too much water will cause root rot, so do not leave the plant standing in water.
Fertilizer
Add some plant fertiliser once every two weeks to produce an abundance of flowers during the growing season.
Sunlight
The plant requires bright light inside and can be placed in full sun outside.
