When to prune? Pelargoniums

*Astrantia*

I’ve got a couple of pelargoniums I keep on my window sill they’re a bit “leggy” although have flowered on and off for a while now. Should I prune them to make them a but more compact? And if yes when is the best time of year?

It depends a bit on the variety as some are naturally more leggy than others. 

I would probably cut them
back in the early spring ... using the pieces you remove as cuttings to grow more plants.

If I bring pelargoniums in for the winter, I cut them right back and so far it hasn't affected them badly. If a plant is looking tatty, I don't wait for months to sort it out but as Dove says, it depends on the variety.
