Water: The cranesbills 'Gerwat' thrives in humid conditions and requires regular watering during summer to lower surface temperature. In winter, reduce watering to prevent root rot. Allow the soil to dry for a day or two to enhance flowering, but avoid prolonged dryness to prevent leaf loss.

Fertilize: Cranesbills 'Gerwat' thrives with adequate nutrients and requires base fertilization at sowing, followed by additional feedings during rapid growth in spring (1-2 times). Outdoor plants benefit from slow-release fertilizers to combat rain dilution, while indoor plants should receive balanced liquid fertilizer after significant growth. Phosphate during flowering enhances bloom quality and duration.
