Geraniums seem to be drying up?

Have geraniums planted in a flowerbed and pots. I don’t know if I’m overwatering them or under? I’ve uploaded a photo — your help is needed! Desperate, as I’ve paid so much money and love them desperately :((

This looks like damage to the flowers from overhead watering. Try to water at the base of the plants and keep water from splashing onto the flowers and foliage.

Allow the soil to dry between waterings, then water throughly.
Deadhead the spent flowers to encourage more flowering.
