This plant species is easy to grow from cuttings. Cuttings can be taken during any time of the year. Stem cuttings of about 100-150 mm long should be taken and a rooting hormone applied, to stimulate the rooting process. The cuttings should be rooted in a cold frame, in a well-drained medium such as coarse river sand. Rooting will take place within four weeks. Once rooted, the cuttings should be potted in a well-drained potting soil. The rooted cuttings should be given an organic liquid fertilizer on a monthly basis or be fed with an organic-based pellet fertilizer.

Sow the seed in a well-drained potting soil. Broadcast the seeds evenly in the seed tray, covering them with a layer of clean, white sand or fine milled pine bark. The depth of sowing is usually one-and-a-half times the size of the seed. Water thoroughly but gently and provide light shade. Germination usually takes place within three weeks. Pelargoniums grown from seed are generally more vigorous than those grown from cuttings; however, they take longer to flower. Pelargonium ionidiflorum does not require a lot of maintenance and will be a pleasure to have in any garden.
