Geranium watering issue

Hi. I had this geranium in a pot for 3 years. Do you think the following issue is under or over watering? It is only the leaves at the base.
Thanks

 

I'm afraid the pictures are not very clear, but the basal leaves usually die off as the stem gets taller.
You'll know if you've over or under watered by feeling the compost, but if it's over watering the stem would probably rot and go mouldy.

 

Has it been in the same pot for 3years.

 

These look like mine - which are this years plugs grown in fresh compost. I don't think that there's anything wrong as such - it's just a 'feature' of the plant.

It's drawing near to the time to prune them back for Winter storage - cut the stems back to around 3" to just above a bud.

Under/over watering results in the same symptoms - brown leaves - it's better to keep the compost dry rather than wet - as these plants originate from hotter climes.

Try not to worry if you see a couple of brown leaves - even evergreen perennials drop some of their leaves as new ones appear - I'm constantly clearing up brown Cherry Laurel leaves - the plants themselves look very healthy.
