I started pulled dead foliage off the mother Geranium the other day, then started removing lower leaves to give it a more tree-like appearance, then went ahead and cut its head off.
Should have waited a few months probably, but it's done now! It will all grow back, but in the meantime looks empty. The pink wedge is to hold a branch further out, they always want to hug the main stem.
I saved a few pieces that came off the top, with the nicest shape, but as the temperatures have suddenly dropped at night again they look rather droopy (even though I block the drafts with panels of cardboard). It doesn't matter if I loose the cuttings. There will always be more.
