How to prune geranium cantabrigiense 'biokovo'

Early to midsummer after flowering; early spring for winter tidy. Shear spent flowerheads and the top third of foliage after bloom to promote new ground-hugging growth. In spring, selectively remove any dead or frost-browned stems with scissors.

Once yearly (post-bloom), plus a quick spring tidy as needed. Geranium cantabrigiense 'Biokovo' forms a compact, semi-evergreen mat and needs very little pruning. Shear lightly after the early-summer white-pink flowers fade to keep the ground cover dense. Remove winter-damaged stems in early spring. Avoid cutting into the woody base — this cultivar resents hard pruning.
