Cut the foliage by half,and take any flowers off,they need to rest.Keep fairly dry,and in a light,cool,frost free place.Not sure about a cellar,unless it has the right conditions as suggested.

Agree with bloomer, also another little tip for you when you cut them back you can also make new plants from the cuttings,,, really easy to do, i do this every year and line the babies up accross my window sils for the winter, that way if i do loose any of the big ones i have replacements... :-)

thanks to bothe of you, will try the cuttings also

ur welcome :-) do you know how to do cuttings?

not sure

you want a nice healthy non flowering shoots, approx 3-4" long cut straight just below a knode, remove all lower leaves leaving just two healthy ones at the top and put straight into a pot of compost, approx 2" down water in and leave it somewhere bright and warm for a few weeks then you will start to see signs of growth if it is sucessful - i usually use bigger pots and put 3 cuttings around the outer edges. be careful not to overwater, and if they get a bit leggy nip out the tips... hop this helps....

Welcome to GOY.glad we could help.....

oh sorry yes welcome.... where are my manors... tsk tsk lol

thank you very much i will do tom

Hi

I'm trying to keep my geraniums over the winter too, they are all starting to re shoot now, i think the minimum of water is important as they can succumb to rot!
