I bought these geranuims a few weeks ago, but they have shown no sign of flowers. Shouldthey have flowered by now, or am I being impatient, and they will flower later?
Thanks in advance.

O.K. Thanks. I was sure that mine were just being stubborn, and others had flowers.

Mine are in bud are you feeding them Alextb?

Don't worry they'll flower soon.( a bit of feed wouln't harm though and they'll flower earlier if they're getting plenty of sun)

Yes, Zonal Geraniums need at least 3 hours of direct sun a day to form flower buds.

They get fed along with the other flowes with Miraclegro, and get more than 3 hours of Sun a day, as the are in the Sunniest side of the garden. They get Sun from around 11am or 12pm, and get it until about 6am or 7pm.
It just looks like I am a bit impatent.
Thanks for the help everyone.

I've planted several hundred bedding geraniums in my customers' gardens this year and they do seem a bit slow to flower.
They all have buds but outdoors, no flowers yet. I have a few on an inside windowsill and they started flowering 2-3 days ago

I have one red geranium out as of yesterday. :-)

Sigh...I am getting ready to toss the ones dying from the summer heat. : (
Ah, well, the seasons advance!

Mine aren't flowering yet either. I'm sure they will soon - and so will yours.
