Geraniums (Pelargoniums) - Farendwoman - 07-07-2023

Anybody noticed that there seems to be a dearth of pelargoniums at the moment?
All my local nurseries and garden centres have sold out.
Also there don’t seem to be any available from the “big” mail order suppliers either.
Any ideas why?

Maybe its too late? All the hanging baskets/planters/bedding displays/window boxes will have been planted weeks ago.

Point taken, Veggie - but in previous years the “lateness” has meant loads of deals and half price plants everywhere.
This is the first time I haven’t been able to buy a geranium at the end of June/ beginning of July.
