Where you live, it won't be necessary to lift and store your pelargonium geraniums. We only do that here because our winters are cold and damp, a combination which these plants hate, so they usually succumb to fungal conditions rather than being killed by the cold. I am not sure whether they will shrivel and die in such extreme heat, though. Certainly in warmer parts of Europe, these plants are outside year round.

Hi Zahra, i live in Bahrain too and all my geraniums are dead by now , i think it will be next to impossible to save them in this hot climate
