Question

Selena is growing geraniums outdoors in a pot. During the day, the temperature in her

area averages 22°C (72°F). At night, the temperature has been dropping to around 13°C
(55°F). What advice would you give to Selena and why?

Answer 1

Keep on doing what you are doing.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the ideal temperatures for growing geraniums,

Answer 2

The advice I would give Selena would be that:

• At night the pot of geraniums enter her house, where the ambient temperature is surely a little above 13 ° C outside, since that minimum temperature is very close to the minimum that it can resist (around 10°) and this plant does not bear the cold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Geranium is a plant closely related to spring and summer seasons characterized by medium or high temperatures, so that geranium can withstand regular temperatures of 30 ° C without any problem as it is directly irradiated by the sun, due to its strength towards warm weather, it is extremely weak to cold weather, so a temperature of 10 ° C or lower could wilt it, for this reason, and considering that the temperature at night decreases to 13 ° C (too close to the limit 10 ° C), it is recommended that you enter the plant into your home at night, where the temperature will surely be 2 or 3 ° C higher than outside.
