Rozanne geranium problem
They are 2, planted in a SE facing container where they have happily grown before.
Free-draining.
Not overwatered.
Flowering like mad since last week, but many of the usually green leaves have turned orange/red.
What's going on?!
Not dyingor diseased, I hope...

It is quite natural for many species of geranium to develop red leaves and is nothing to worry about.

thanks punk - had no idea! early days for me growing hardy geraniums - thought it might be that sun was too hot that side.
punkdoc's right- most geraniums I've had showed red leaves at some point.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
really? none of my hardy ones in the back garden have - only this pot at the front. weird. but thanks both for the reassurance!
They will do this especially if they get cold or a bit stressed - it can add to the colour of the whole show. We have various types of hardy geraniums, some of these are more prone to reddening of the leaves than others - why? Who knows!
I see - hopefully mine weren't stressed
but will watch them closely.
thanks Verdun - you always put my mind at rest
