No flowers yet

I have grown some pelargoniums from cuttings over the winter, and they are now very healthy looking large bushy plants. They have been planted in large pots in the garden but there are no signs of any flowers yet. Can anyone tell me When I can expect them to flower?

RE: No flowers yet

Any time now. The flowers take several weeks to develop. Mine which overwintered in the ground outside have been flowering for several weeks, those in pots have not put out any flowers yet. Excess nitrogen can delay flowering as the plant grows like mad. Some varieties, particularly with the more fancy leaves, are a bit shy about flowering. A good sunny spot is important for the flowers, and don't overwater.
