Geraniums

I overwintered some Geraniums,but something is eating the leaves,I have
never had this before,any idea what this could be please

 

What sort of damage, holes all over or great big swathes of destruction?

 

Holes all over

 

I reckon caterpillars Layla-the little blighters have made lacework of some of my stuff too. Little fat green ones.

 

Thank you Lollipop,I will check for them,it os so annoying when you take the trouble to
overwinter plants,only for them to be destroyed!

 

Itll be fine really Layla, tis the season for them to chuck on a load of new growth so just give them a small feed, check for clighters and away it will go.

 

Some of those pests are so small you can hardley see them,I have watered with a systemic,when they nibble they die.

We talking Geraniums, David

 

Cranesbill?

 

??????

 

Cranesbill are the perennial geraniums that die down in winter - purple and pink flowers usually.

 

Thank you Aaron,no it is not those,it is the ordinary everyday Geranium

 

I always get confused about them, not sure if they should properly be called pelargoniums, but I've always called the geraniums too.

I know mine get a bit leggy and rubbish when I bring them indoors, so after a couple of years I bin them (well the chickens love them!) and get new ones.
