Brave Geranium still blooming in December!

Tiverton, RI(Zone 6b)

This annual geranium (Pelargonium) bloomed on my outdoor deck all Summer and persisted through Fall. It is now December 6 and the high temp today was only 34 degrees. This annual is still very alive and still has light pink flowers coming up. The water in my fountain is frozen so I don't know why this tender annual never died through the several frosts we've had.

Some snaps and some roses are still blooming here and the one Pelargonium I forgot to bring inside is still fine outside but I'll try to rescue it tomorrow.

I'd bring it in, it will continue to grow.....mine is and I did the same thing, left it out a few very cold nights.

It's too large and "leggy" to bring in as a houseplant. A few weeks ago I did take two pieces off the main plant and potted them up to overwinter indoors. They are now blooming inside, so I'll carry then over until late Spring. I hadn't planned to keep my geranium and mandavilla vine through the winter since I usually just leave annuals outside and replace them in the Spring. Since these two made it through the first couple of frosts, however, I decided they were't giving up without a fight and they earned the little extra work for me to keep them over Winter.
