It looks like somthing has been eating it

#SweetScentedGeranium
7” pot with drainage
Last watered 10 months ago
@SharpLithop83 Uh oh, sounds like something’s been treating Austen like a salad bar! The nibbled leaves are usually from caterpillars or sneaky beetles especially since he’s outdoors.
I feel Here’s how to help I think could help…Check under the leaves and around the base look for bugs or tiny green presents(a.k.a. poop πŸ‘€).
Mix up some neem oil or insecticidal soap and give the plant a light spray every few days.
You can also move the pot slightly or raise it up sometimes even that throws off the snackers. Bonus trick try planting something like basil or marigold nearby as a β€œdistraction plant” so pests go for that instead.Geraniums are fighters, so once you cut off the buffet line, Austen should perk right back up!
