mini Geraniums

All of the plants living on my kitchen windowsill are doing splendid, especially the miniature Geraniums. The two cuttings I started this summer are growing and growing (see above and below).
And the mother plant is so full I can hardly see its container!
I had to trim out some foliage from the center that was dying from lack of light- blocked by all the other leaves. This helps with the bonsai shape, too.
Still no flowers... I have to let these grow enough someday without pruning to get flowers. I keep pinching their tops off to encourage small leaves and thick stems instead.
