Meine Mutter hat mir von meiner verstorbenen Oma Germanium geschenkt und es ist im Sterben! Ich weiß nicht, was passiert ist, da es völlig gesund war. Ich habe eine Bewässerungsbirne darin, um übermäßiges Gießen zu vermeiden, und ich habe eine Wachstumslampe. Kann mir jemand helfen, wie ich es wiederbeleben kann? Danke

The bulb doesn’t help. If anything it causes over watering. The light should be in the frame of the picture.
Does the pot have drainage holes? Very important too.
I think it’s been too wet for too long & the roots have rotted, leading to the leaves giving up. tale it out of the pot & soil and sniff and feel and see if it’s wet/drenched/soggyrotting/smelly
I suggest you go and buy some rooting hormone powder and take cuttings from the live parts, remove the dead plant and use that soil to stick the cuttings in root hormone in and see if those take root after a couple of weeks. It’s called propagation, there’s probably of plenty of content on propagating just geraniums.
Geraniums need to be kept VERY dry.
the most common mistake with house plants is killing with kindness by watering too much, plants have a permanent wilting point when not watered but take quite a long time to get there, it doesn’t take long to drown something, air in the rootball is just as important as water….
Move it somewhere bright and sunny, if you can remove it from the pot and let all the water drain from the soil.
Check to see if the pot/container has drainage? if it doesn’t put it in a pot that does.
Dont cut it back now, wait until late spring, there are still green shoots there so might recover, above all dont be tempted to water it.
I agree with SniffleandOlly. Propagating a couple pieces increases your odds of saving your special plant. Removing it from its current pot, replacing soil and watering less could help the main plant survive. Plus don’t let heater vent air get to it.
Love your cute “get well” signs. The advice is good below to make sure the pot has drainage holes, stop using the watering bulb, and move the plant into brighter light close to a window. Let the soil completely dry out, then water deeply and let all the water drain out the bottom of the pot before moving it back into a tray. I would also suggest cutting off all of the dead shoots. Geraniums respond well to even drastic pruning. Hopefully, you will soon see some new, healthy shoots growing. In the spring, you might want to move it outdoors–start by putting it in an area with some shade so it isn’t shocked by the sudden increase of light, and then gradually move it into areas with more sun. Geraniums like a lot of light.
