They all seem to do it in drought or such. And go in growing although they look very poorly.

Most gerainums are really tough.

I would remove the sickly leaves and give all the plants in the trough a liquid feed.

They should soon pick up.

Mine do this all the time. I think it is just the plants shedding old leaves. Just tidy them up and sometimes give them a feed. Baby bio or those little round balls in a jar (Miraclegro?). I cut them back in the winter and store them in the garage. They are just as good next year.
